Idea Montagna "Ski Mountaineering in the Orobie Valtellinesi" is a ski mountaineering guide dedicated to the valleys of the Orobie Valtellinesi, which have an approximately north-south orientation and are surrounded by rugged mountains with steep slopes. The slopes rich in ski mountaineering routes predominantly face northeast to northwest (with a few exceptions) and allow for finding snow in excellent conditions for most of the ski season.
Although many are easily accessible, the most frequented routes are accompanied by lesser-known paths that offer a ski mountaineering experience of research and exploration, where it is not uncommon to have to break trail with skins for the entire ascent, up to the slopes where the first tracks can be left on the untouched snow during the fun descents.
This guide is created with the intent to collect the main ski mountaineering routes of the Orobie Valtellinesi and provide an almost complete overview for those who feel the desire to explore this stunning geographical area, often unjustly overlooked because many routes through its valleys have not entered the realm of the great classics, repeated perhaps every season.
