The World's Most Spectacular Via Ferrata! (1 day of annual leave)
About the event
There's nothing in the world even remotely similar to the Via delle Bocchette – and nothing can compare. Even a dozen other via ferratas, no matter how beautiful, won't offer as many thrills and satisfaction:)! Thanks to its extraordinary beauty, the Gruppo di Brenta has also earned a unique place in the history of mountaineering, one that has been etched in the memory of the world's greatest climbers.
Attention!!! Considerable physical endurance, no fear of heights or high adrenaline/risk appetite - required:) Previous experience with Via ferratas – required, together with Via ferrata set (Helmet + Harness + Lanyard with absorber). No climbing experience nor snow equipment is necessary.
