The Cevedale group, located between Lombardy and Trentino Alto Adige, is one of the most interesting groups for spring ski mountaineering. Its many peaks over three thousand meters are almost all reachable with skis and allow you to make beautiful descents on very varied routes often on glaciers not much crevassed. Throughout the Cevedale group there are excellent refuges, welcoming and placed in strategic points, which allow you to make crossings from one side to the other or to stop on the spot making different itineraries every day
