The 3000+ King Tour is a high-altitude trilogy in Trentino, leading to the ascent of three great summits in the Adamello-Presanella group: Cima Presanella (3,358 m), Cima Adamello (3,539 m) and Carè Alto (3,463 m). An intense, continuous mountaineering tour over two days, designed for those looking for a true advanced alpine experience in Trentino, among glaciers, ridges and high-mountain terrain.
This is a light-and-fast mountaineering marathon across open spaces, steep faces and vast glacier landscapes, with climbing sections, abseil descents and progression along ridges and glaciers. An experience for those who feel truly hard-core: technically accessible, but extremely demanding from a physical and mental point of view.
