Via Ferrata in Cortina D’Ampezzo

Conquer the rocky walls of Cortina in the heart of the Dolomites and home to the via ferrata

The classic climbs of via ferratas, with its gruesome origins in the Dolomite Mountains in World War I, are scattered across the region. With fixed cables, ladders and steps fused to the limestone rocks, via ferratas enable smoother ascents for those with little or no technical climbing skills. And with a great supply of rocky walls, there are options for all levels, from easier routes in Monte Paterno to more demanding routes in Punta Anna. Visit between May and October for prime climbing conditions.
