Gran Sasso Kayak Merkezi bilgi özeti

Gran Sasso (The Great Stone) is the most famous climbing spot in the Apennines, located 150km away from Rome in the heart of Abruzzo. It is a magnificent rocky limestone summit offering views you would usually associate with the Alps. Gran Sasso is also a free ride paradise with dozens of 1000-1400 m drops in untouched powder. No pistes here. Access is by the Fonte Cerreto cable car where you disembark at 2135m and climb a further 250m to the Duca d'Abruzzi refuge (2385m). Skiing at Gran Sasso, much of it steep and pretty extreme (crampons/axes required), is from December to late May, even June and vertical descents of up to 1400m are possible.
