The incredible universe of icefalls offers the more experienced the opportunity to have a go at ice climbing, a discipline as difficult as it is fascinating. The many streams and waterfalls of our territory can give rise to real ice architectures, some of which are ideal for this extreme sport. 20 waterfalls in total, distributed through the Primiero, Pale di San Martino and Valle di Vanoi territory, most of them to be found in Val Noana. Val Noana, carved by the Noana torrent (flowing into the Cismon torrent at Imèr), looks like a deep canyon with steep rock walls, some of which are equipped for climbing. The San Martino Alpine Guides are available to take you over the most beautiful ice flows and reveal all the secrets of piolet traction, the technique that made it possible to climb the waterfalls.
