Together we are travelling to a very special mountain range: the Dolomites. They are known for their unique and impressive landscape. The rock faces rise steeply from the surrounding meadows and forests, dotted with couloirs, towers and unique rock formations. Despite the steepness of the walls, the classic Dolomite tours are grade IV (4 degrees): steep, but with a good grip! During these days we do varied tours, alpine and adventurous. The descent is often just as adventurous as the ascent: abseiling, route finding and terrain are exciting.

In this case, it is also perfect for sustainable coaching. In a protected environment, you have the opportunity to lead a rope team and make decisions. We support you and accompany you during your learning process. Experience in this area and on these tours is extremely instructive.

  • Content and procedure

    Content

    We offer you the opportunity to enjoy guided tours but also to learn a lot and gain your own invaluable experience. With our modern guiding style, we impart applicable knowledge and provide a framework in which you can apply it safely. Together we climb breathtaking, beautiful climbing tours in a rope team. Where you want and where it is possible, you can take the lead and lead climb, if you no longer want to, we will take over again!

    In the evening, we reflect on what we have experienced and draw our conclusions. Feedback is part of the development process and is extremely important for us as well as for you. We use the new insights and experiences to plan the next tour together.

    So this week will be no ordinary climbing trip, if you want you will go home with an incredible new wealth of experience and have significantly improved your skills!

    Here are some points of the training content during this week. This list is not exhaustive, we respond individually to your needs and look forward to creating an interesting programme.

That's what our guests say:

  • Katarina Giger

    The Bergschaft has given me two of my best holidays ever. Ski touring in the Lofoten Islands in Norway and a week of trad climbing in the Dolomites. I have also taken part in weekend climbing trips with my family, ice climbing and splitboarding trips. Every time I finish a trip I book another one because the offers are great, I love the energy and it's always so much fun. I can only recommend Bergschaft and their guides. It's hard to describe - you just have to try it!
  • Reto Strassmann

    We spent a wonderful week climbing in the Dolomites with Bergschaft. I can highly recommend Bergschaft.
