South Tyrol’s Far North

Synopsis

The rugged area around the Tauferer Ahrntal valley is a popular haunt for locals – and is also the place where South Tyrolean climbing ace Simon Gietl and his brother Manuel love to attempt first ascents, where extreme mountaineer and ice climber Christoph Hainz feels at home, and biathlon star Dorothea Wierer goes for her high-altitude training. Will Simon and Manuel succeed in making the first ascent of the spectacular Orca route or will Manuel’s past trauma catch up with him again?
