Ice climbing in the Tinne Valley

The Tinnetal valley is a deep gorge that separates Villanders from Klausen/Latzfons up to the Villanderer Alm. Starting from the car park of the Nock climbing garden, the ideal ice climbing route initially leads directly through the Tinnetal valley, later to the left through the Finkenbach stream to the plateaus of the Villanderer Alm. The ascent is not possible every year due to a lack of cold or too much water. The tour itself is certainly one of the most rewarding and longest pure ice climbing tours in South Tyrol. With a maximum difficulty of WI 5- and, depending on the conditions, some easy combined sections, the tour is not particularly technically demanding, but requires a good level of stamina due to its length.
