Devil‘s Wall via the Groß-Führe route – for slightly advanced climbers
Alpine climbing route of medium difficulty with a mountain guide on a south-east face in the Rosengarten
The Devil’s Wall is situated on the western end of the Dolomites. As scary as the name may sounds, it is actually an alpine climbing route in solid rock with a high entertainment value.
Here, Dolomite climbers can still practice their craft. The difficulty of the climbing itself is not particularly high, rated IV° on the UIAA scale. Nevertheless, you need to have a good sense of route finding.
Some nails for the indermediate safety are available and can be properly improved with camelots. However, most of the belays along the route must be set up by yourself. Don’t worry, as the second in our rope team, you can enjoy the ascent, even if it’s your task to leave the belays as we found them – we’ll practise this together.
During our alpine climbing day in the Rosengarten, we are constantly rewarded with a view of the Marmolada and the Fassa Valley below. With its altitude of 3343m, the Marmolada is the highest mountain in the Dolomites Mountain region and can also be climbed as an easy high-altitude tour.
All in all, this climbing route in the Devil’s Wall is a great alpine summit to improve your skills. The descent is easy over a ridge in the direction of the Croda Rossa and back to the Paolina chairlift.
Any missing equipment is provided free of charge.
