Multi-day
OVERVIEW
The most iconic mountain in the northern alps is this mountain, Mt. Yari. Meaning spear with that shape of the mountain, you never forget once you see it. The lift-up and glacier activities made this mountain as it is now. We walk through the long valley and take ladders up to the summit on the final push.
