Via Ferratas of the Italian Dolomites, Volume 1

Description

This guidebook describes 75 Via Ferrata routes in the Italian Dolomites. It covers the northern, central and eastern parts of the Dolomites, including Cortina, Fassa, Sesto, Canazei and Corvara north. The Italian Dolomites are characterised by soaring rocky spires and jagged ridgelines that are interspersed with gentle valleys and idyllic mountain villages.

Each Via Ferrata route has a comprehensive description, access information, maps, and topos. All the routes are also graded by technical difficulty and seriousness.

The concept of Via Ferrate routes was established in the Dolomites, and are defined as mountain routes that are protected by a series of cables, metal rungs, pegs and ladders.

Published by Cicerone in January 2018, this 3rd edition of this Via Ferrata guidebook has been fully revised, and includes many stunning photographs.
