Ghiaccio delle Orobie

83 itineraries with ice axes and crampons in the Orobie, Presolana, Grigne, Concarena and Resegone Alps. Having long remained in the shadow of the main Alpine chain, the Orobie and the Lombard Prealps are experiencing a phase of rediscovery linked to the increasingly widespread practice of winter mountaineering. During the harsh Orobic winters, characterized by abundant rainfall and marked temperature variations, walls at moderate altitudes transform into wild glacial slopes: the ideal playground for an ever-increasing number of enthusiasts who, armed with ice axes and crampons, trace their footsteps along icy lines of every difficulty. To the numerous now classic channels, ideal for the first steps with crampons on your feet, new ice and modern mixed itineraries are added every year on almost unexplored slopes, where the imagination of mountaineers still finds full freedom of expression.
