Sport Climbing in South Tyrol

Don’t look down! This motto is valid not only for who has a bad head of heights, but also for adventurers who climb on rope courses at the adventure park.

The adventure park is situated in Dobbiaco and it is targeted exclusively to beginners and because of that appropriate particularly for families with children. Besides, also experienced climbers won’t get a raw deal. In the adventure park of Dobbiaco there are 10 different courses. Seven of them are excellently suitable for children. The first two are there to familiarize with the security equipment. The following course is about 2 m high and perfect for smaller children. The green and blue courses are all 219 m long and 3–4 m high. Besides, there are also the purple and the red course. They are about 4–6 m high and a bit more difficult. The most difficult course is the black one: it is 8-15 m high. The latest attraction of the course is the new canyon course, with about 40 tricky obstacles.

A tricky, demanding, superbly constructed route with absolutely breathtaking views. The via ferrata was named after the mountaineer from Ahornach. The route begins close to the Kleingruberhof in Ahornach, covers 600 metres in length and 300 vertical metres, and requires nerves of steel and a lot of strength – above all in the arms.  After a relatively moderate start, the rock face becomes extremely steep. According to Hans Kammerlander, there is nothing like it in the entire Dolomite region; the difficulty reaches level E, but is mostly D and C. The path ends after around three hours of climbing near the Kofler zwischen den Wänden and is only suitable for experienced climbers. A good head for heights is one hundred percent essential.

Route description:
A short ladder up to an overhang (E), then a B/C and C-grade traverse to the Burma bridge (A/B). After the bridge continue (B) to a small niche and then steeply (D) to a flake and right into the narrow intersection (D/E). The intersection widens (D) and leads to the 15-m ladder (inside B/C; outside C). After the ladder, a left turn (D and briefly E) over the roof and climbing to the right (D and C) in easier terrain (B/B). Then the route moves on to an edge and the long, ascending traverse begins (always B, B/C and also briefly C) up to the next overhang. Just before this the face becomes steeper (C/D) and you will reach the tree trunk on which you cross to the roof edge. Next briefly D and then easier to the rope bridge. Cross this bridge and then traverse horizontally (B). The rope becomes steeper (C and C/D) and leads up under the next bridge, which is reached by looping round to the left (B). After the second bridge a slab pillar (up to C) leads up to the exit at a wooden fence.
