WHY THIS HIKE

Snowshoe Hike at the Foot of Agner

Snowshoes in the heart of the Agordo Dolomites, below Monte Agner.

Group chat a couple of days before
Come alone, leave with new friends

The experience

We set off with the Guidders from Frassenè Agordino, not far from Agordo, and climb towards Rifugio Scarpa-Gurekian, following either path CAI 771 or the easier access road depending on the snow. We climb calmly, leaving the valley floor behind for a landscape that grows more alpine at every turn. The goal is the hut, magnificently placed below the Agner group: one of the most imposing and recognisable mountains in the Belluno area, seen from here in its full height.

5 reasons to come - Monte Agner seen from below, where it hits hardest - Rifugio Scarpa and its position under the group - a snow climb within everyone's reach - the Agordo Dolomites, away from the busiest circuits - the satisfaction of getting there together, on snowshoes

Who it suits Nothing technical, but climbing on snow asks for a little fitness: we go slowly and arrive together.

The Dolomites in winter are another story: come and find them with the Guidders.

VERTIGO RISK

Dress in layers and set off in daylight: on snow you sweat going up and freeze at the stops. If you've never snowshoed, no experience needed, just legs for a long walk and an easy pace
✓
IN YOUR BACKPACK
Snowshoes and poles (rent them if you don't have them), waterproof boots, gaiters, gloves plus a spare pair, a beanie, sunglasses, a hot thermos and a snack. Always with you: a plaster, an antiseptic wipe and a small bag for rubbish
