Via ferratas in Cortina d’Ampezzo and among the Dolomites are undoubtedly one of the most adventurous, characteristic and challenging activities one can do in the mountains.
But what is a via ferrata? A via ferrata is ahike over rocky terrain equipped with fixed ropes to which you secure yourself with a harness and via ferrata set, offering an interesting alternative somewhere between climbing and high-altitude hiking.
Many of the via ferrata routes in Cortina d’Ampezzo date back to the First Great War of 1915-18, when armies manned the ridge areas and, in order to reach them more easily, equipped the ledges and chimneys with metal ropes, ladders and sometimes bridges, following the most logical passages. Since then, the style of ferratas has obviously changed a lot: in modern ferratas, more vertical and aerial passages are often sought to give a more sporty style.
The allure of this activity wins over even the least experienced hiker who is experiencing the thrill of altitude and vertical for the first time. Not only that, ask for the easiest routes so that even kids can experience the thrill of an equipped route.
Let the Cortina Mountain Guides accompany you along the most beautiful and scenic via ferrata routes in the Dolomites.
