Guided Via Ferrata day

If you're looking for a little bit of adventure, we offer the chance to try a Via Ferrata experience. Via Ferrata, meaning "iron way" in Italian is a popular activity in Europe that involves metal cables, iron pins, and foot holds. The Dolomites are home to the first-ever Via Ferrata route, installed on the mountain in 1880 by local mountain guides to help their clients ascend. These paths were also used in World War I to move troops around the borders of Austria and Italy. Experience the history and adrenaline of Via Ferrata in the beautiful Dolomite Mountains."
