Introduction To Via Ferrata(Trip #65646)

Tour Overview

Enjoy high level walking and scrambling with local UIAGM guides amid spectacular scenery
The Sexten Dolomites are an extensive cluster of fine, craggy mountains occupying the northeastern corner of the Dolomites massif, an area which includes many 'jewels' such as the Tre Cime de Lavaredo. This is considered one of the best parts of this vast mountain range, thanks to its stunning landscapes. Although popular with rock climbers, our UIAGM qualified guides safely lead us across the excellent selection of protected Via Ferrata scrambles, such as Toblinger Knoten. Fortifications were placed on strategic cols and summits during the First World War, which can be reached via iron ladders, bridges and even tunnels through rock. To accompany the superb walks, we also enjoy traditional Tyrolean hospitality at our family-run hotel.The Daily Mail - writes about Summer Highs - Via Ferrata (11 February 2009).
