Nice route fully equipped with bolts. 6c maximum, nice climb mostly on slabs. Possible to rappell down on the same route (70m single rope required, better with 2 x 60m half ropes). Enjoy!

Nice via ferrata near Passo Falzarego. Easy and quick approach. The difficulties are concentrated on the first steep part. It's very well equipped, with tight wires and some pegs. Easy descent by walk. Beautiful panorama from the top.

The West Ridge in Punta Penia, Marmolada is a medium difficult via ferrata, and one of the more panoramic all over the Dolomites as well. Strarting from Rifugio Pian dei Fiacconi, you hike on snow and ice with crampons till Forcella Marmolada, where the via ferrata starts. It's well protected with fixed steel ropes, ladders and some pitons, and you climb up to 3000m on a great scenery, with many contrasts (rock, snow, ice and the green fields around Arabba and Val di Fassa), very challenging. This tour has to be faced with caution and preparation, better with a Mountain Guide. You hike on a glacier (risks of crevasses) and around an altitude where a changing in the weather could be dangerous.

La Cresta Ovest di Punta Penia è una via ferrata difficile, certamente una delle più panoramiche delle Dolomiti. Partendo dal rifugio Pian dei Fiacconi si cammina prima sui resti del ghiacciaio, poi su neve e ghiaccio con i ramponi fino alla Forcella Marmolada, dove inizia la ferrata vera e propria. Attrezzata con funi metalliche, staffe e qualche scala, la salita si svolge costantemente sopra i 3000m in uno scenario maestoso, ricco di contrasti (la roccia, la neve, il ghiaccio e i prati verdi della valle di Livinallongo) e molto emozionante.

Percorso solitario intorno a Gares, lungo l'Orrido delle Comelle. Una cengia di 50m e un caratteristico passaggio in un buco (il "Bus") permette di rientrare al punto di partenza, concludendo un anello magnifico in ambiente solitario.
