Climbing tour: Cima Picolissima - Via Preuß V

Sesto/Sexten, Sexten/Sesto, Dolomites Region 3 Zinnen
from center

The climbing tour on the peak of the Cima Piccola helped to the denomination of the today’s Preuß-Tower. The profitable tour is a milestone of the history of free climbing and is on the to-do list of every alpinist. As early as 1911, Paul Preuss discovered the logical intersection of cracks in the northeast wall of the seemingly impossible tower and realized it in an uncompromising climbing style.

The Three Peaks are the symbol of the Alta Pusteria: They belong to the most famous mountains of the Dolomites and the best known climbing destinations in the world.

Ascent 406 m
Descent 70 m
Highest point 2649 m
