This via ferrata is a very long and demanding mountain tour that requires mountain experience, knowledge of the weather and a very good physical condition. The long ribbons, which are well secured in the exposed areas, lead again and again in the lower part to the steep steps that connect the crossings.

The Col Rosá via ferrata is varied, very steep in short sections and also exposed, but consistently on good rock.
It is especially beautiful in autumn, when the colored deciduous trees round off the picture.

This via ferrata is a classic in the Dolomites and is framed by rugged walls and towers with magnificent views. The via ferrata is relatively short with difficult Alpine passages that require Alpine experience.

Attention: there are some snowfields. For accessibility, mountain experience and the appropriate equipment are required (good hiking boots, hiking poles and possibly crampons).

The via ferrata Les Cordes, classified as medium to moderate, is a climb with great view points. The via ferrata was built on the edge of the Puez-Odle Nature Park along a centuries-old route.

Many, many years ago, the farmers of La Villa brought their cows and horses to the Gherdenacia plateau on very steep path. The trail was much steeper and more demanding than all the paths that today lead to the Plateau. The path was called "les cordes" (Ladin for "the ropes").

In 2019 a via ferrata, also called "Les Cordes", was built along this route. The starting point of the via ferrata can be easily reached with the Gardenaccia chairlift. From the mountain station of the chairlift it is than only about 5 minutes to the start.

Beautiful, varied via ferrata in the southern Rosengarten massif with fantastic views of the Dolomites.

Attention: there are some snowfields. For accessibility, mountain experience and the appropriate equipment are required (good hiking boots, hiking poles and possibly crampons).

The challenging via ferrata has at one point grade D with a protruding stretch. The whole via ferrata is secured by a very taut, thick rope and anchors placed at short gaps.

The Giuseppe Olivieri via ferrata to Punta Anna leads steeply up the southern edge of the Tofana, in the middle of the Dolomites around Cortina.

Long but panoramic Alpine tour featuring an easy via ferrata between the Latemar towers.

The Piccolo Cir is a relatively short via ferrata, but not to be underestimated, and is suitable as
a half-day tour. 

The Dolomites, which many people regard as the most beautiful mountains in the world, are an awesome challenge that climbers and mountaineers shouldn't miss. Vertical rock faces and steep towers guarantee plenty of climbing challenges. Doubtless, one of the most famous fixed-rope routes in the Dolomites is the via ferrata Pisciadú (also known as the Via Ferrata Tridentina) in the Sella massif. The via ferrata, easily reachable from Colfosco, has some intriguing vertical sections and a suspension bridge.

Via ferrata tour: VIA DELLA PACE (Peace Trail, extended in 2003)
Fanes > Gran Fanes › Furcia Rossa (2791 m, H: 2 hours) › First follow the trail marked VB, then turn right after approx. 1.5 hours.

This impressive via ferrata (equipped trail) winds through chimneys and crevices, steep passages and two vertical ladder ascents up to a breathtaking summit in the Sella group. The access to the via ferrata is located near the Kostner mountain hut, at the top station of the Vallon lift. The hut can be reached from Corvara with the Boé gondola or on foot with an ascent from the Campolongo pass.

The fairly short yet busy via ferrata boasts a magnificent view of the north face of the Sella
Group, the Sassolungo and the Puez plateau.

The imposing mountain scenery of the Sella Group, the waterfall, the vertical climbing passages at Exner Tower, a suspension bridge and a mountain lake make the Pisciadù via ferrata
one of the most popular and busiest in the Dolomites. 

The first moments of the morning at the top of a peak, when the shy rays of the sun illuminate the surrounding rocks, making them glow a warm orange-gold colour: breathtaking moments that will remain engraved in your heart forever.
Just outside Colfosco, on the bends of the Gardena pass, you can enjoy the inimitable spectacle of the Dolomite sunrise as you climb the peaks of the Cir group. Of all the possible climbs, that to the summit of the Gran Cir is the least difficult.

Short, steep via ferrata on solid rock with good grip. Easy access and gorgeous panorama.
