VIA FERRATA ACTIVITIES

The breath taking pinnacles of the Dolomites have always been well known to hikers and climbers from all over the world. During the First World War, the Italian and Austro-Hungarian armies fought against each other on the vertical walls of these wonderful mountains. In order to succeed, they had to fix iron ladders and wire cables to the rock, often under enemy fire. Today, many of these itineraries have been converted to recreational use and can be tackled by whoever wants to go a step further from hiking, towards the magical world of mountaineering. The World Famous Vie Ferrate (“iron routes”) of the Dolomites are well protected itineraries with wire cables for safety, iron rods and steps fixed to the rock allowing hikers an easier approach to the mountains.
