Description

Monte Civetta is one of the most important peaks of the entire Dolomites. The sheer magnitude of all routes here makes a climb of this huge face a very serious undertaking. Most famous of these is the Solleder-Lettenbauer Route, which takes an elegant line directly to the summit. A via ferrata or Klettersteig also accesses the summit and provides a secure descent.
