PROGRAM
The advanced mountaineering course caters to mountain enthusiasts who already have some mountaineering experience and to all those who want to deepen and broaden their knowledge and technical skills to tackle difficult climbs on rock, ice and mixed terrain safely and independently.
The course program we suggest can be adapted to the needs and technical capabilities of the participants. Depending on the skills of the participants, we will choose two climbs in Italy, France or Switzerland, to put into practice what we have learned, always supervised by an Alpine Guide and Master in Mountaineering.
