DOLOMITES 09 - Punta Penia (Marmolada), the Highest Peak of the Dolomites

On this day, we conquered the highest peak of the Dolomites - Punta Penia, standing at 3,343 meters. As usual, there was no shortage of thrills, adrenaline, and stunning views. However, it wasn't easy since it was our first glacier, and we made plenty of mistakes, especially me, which could have cost us our lives or health. Additionally, we were already feeling quite exhausted as it was the 9th day of our expedition. Daily wild camping in tents, washing in icy rivers and lakes, and hiking all day really took a toll on us. From the video, you can learn how to safely ascend this glacier, what mistakes to avoid, the origin of the peak's name, hear a few interesting facts from World War II, about some dangerous events that happened on this mountain, see one of the most beautiful lakes in the Dolomites - Lago di Fedaia, get a close look at glacier crevasses, and most importantly, understand the entire route to the summit and back. Grab the video and let us know if you liked it!
