Lendiniera  Map

The most satisfying freeride in Sestriere! 300m of skins, 100m of crampons in a couloir and 30m of exposed traverse helped by a fixed rope: an entertaining approach to the suspended Lendiniera Valley! You will change in downhill mode in a large shoulder and then 1500m of a very long descent are waiting for you!

Difficulty

Severe

Steep skiing at 38-45 degrees. This requires very good technique and the risk of falling has serious consequences.

2 out of 4

As well as the slope itself, there are some obstacles (such as rock outcrops) which could aggravate injury.

Remoteness

3 out of 4

Little chance of being seen or helped in case of an accident.
