Description

On this 5-day program, I would like to invite you discover some of the best via ferratas in the Rosengarden Group in the Dolomites.

As you may know, the Dolomites is one of the most incredible places to enjoy via ferrata. On this opportunity, we will take a route every day and conquer a different summit in the range. We will combine an amazing sportive activity with the excitement of reaching the top of the mountains and admiring its views.

At the end of the day, we will also have the pleasure to see the gorgeous sunset lights on the Rosengarden Group. Finally, we will rest and share a delicious local meal in the refuges of the mountains.

Please, take a look below for a more detailed description of each day activity.

Regarding difficulty, keep in mind that we will spend 4-5 hours per day on the activity and face an elevation gain not higher than 900 meters. The level of this program is difficult, so it is mandatory to have prior via ferrata experience and a very good level of fitness.

Mountain Guide

I have been a mountain guide since 1990. I started going to the mountains since I was very young. I was a competitive skier and covered most of the most challenging classic routes of the Dolomites and the Mont Blanc. I am an IFMGA-certified guide and I have also worked as a mountain rescue volunteer and helicopter rescue technician in 1985. Some say that my greatest gift is patience and practicity. Personally, I look for a good and harmonic relationship with people, to allow my clients to enjoy a satisfying mountain experience.

Lesley

Thank you explore-share for a wonderful via feratta experience. We have been wanting to learn for a long time but don't have the facilities in Scotland. The guide Mitja was extremely helpful and knowledgeable, answering all my many questions and providing advice. On the day head to take another group but he quickly arranged another guide Borut, who was brilliant. We had a fantastic morning learning via ferrata at Hvadnik in the gorge. It gave us the confidence to later hire our own equipment and go out in Mojstrana. Altogether a five star + experience. Thank you.
