Sarplatte

Climbing the Sarplatte via the Zsigmondy route (grade 5-) is a classic alpine experience. The route itself is characterized by its exposed position, solid rock, and sustained, though moderate, difficulty. Expect a mix of face climbing, stemming, and crack climbing. While the grade 5- may seem straightforward, the alpine environment adds a layer of complexity. Route finding can be tricky in places, so a good topo and experience in similar terrain are essential. The views from the summit are stunning, offering a panorama of the surrounding Dolomites. The Zsigmondy on the Sarplatte is a rewarding climb for those comfortable with committing alpine routes and solid rock skills.
