Successfully passed the exams the AMM makes a request to the Regional College of Alpine Guides to be included in the special list of Accompanyers Medium Mountain . The AMM, if interested, has the possibility, following a further 100 hours training course and passing the final practical technical examination, to obtain the International Mountain Leader recognition that allows him to work abroad.
With the attendance of the course of AMM I had the opportunity to learn many small and big things that today allow me to read the territory, to read a geological map, to know the history of the Great War in the Dolomites, so I can tell you a lot of this natural environment preserved by the foresight of our mountain ancestors.
