The 2 Best Via Ferratas to link in 1 day - Vael & Masare
Two awesome Ferratas, one day.
As part of a RUclips series I'm doing where I'm rating the best Via Ferratas in the Italian Dolomites, in September I went to climb Via Ferrata Roda di Vael and Masare.
I started from the village of Carezza and took the cable car to Refugio Paolina to get to the start of the trail.
From the get-go, the views of the Brenta Dolomites leave you speeches.
The first Via Ferrata I did was Roda di Vael, to a summit bearing the same name.
This wasn't a difficult Ferrata, quite a good warm-up for Masare.
I'd say Via Ferrata Masare is the main event of these two, with consistent and good climbing and traversing and some incredible views from the higher points.
This was the l...

Soloing the Highest Mountain in the Dolomites - Marmolada
Просмотров 7 тыс.19 часов назад
There’s one Via Ferrata that stands above the rest and in this case, it’s literal. As part of a RUclips series I'm doing 'Rating the best Via Ferratas in the Italian Dolomites', in September I set out to climb Marmolada's highest summit, Punta Penia. I was sceptical of going alone at first, since every classical route to Marmolada's summit seems to go over a glacier, however, once I studied the...
Inside Italy's WWI Tunnels; Exploring Via Ferrata Delle Trincee

I'm on a quest to find the best Ferrata in the Dolomites, could this be it? After climbing 3 of the best Ferratas in the Cortina area I was looking forward to giving Delle Trincee a shot. Literary translating to 'Of the Trenches', this Via Ferrata feels like a museum as much as an adventure. Its ridge has stunning views of Marmolada and the Sella group, and the route takes you through ruins and...

Rated as one of the best Via Ferratas in the Dolomites - let's see if it lives up to the hype. Via Ferrata Brigata Tridentina isn't too difficult, which is probably one of the reasons for its popularity. That and the awesome suspension bridge of course... The climb is straightforward but exposed, culminating in a beautiful plateau with dramatic views of the Italian Dolomites. At the top of the ...

    Madalin,tThese two ferattas are not in the Dolomiti di Brenta. That mountain range is about three hours away to the west of the eastern Dolomites where these tow VFs are located. To be more precise they are in Catinaccio (Rosengarten in german). Dolomiti di Brenta is also quite different in how they look from eastern Dolomites. There is a prevalence of vertical walls interrupted by long ledges and their VFs have a lot of ladders due to this fact. Congrats on the production, it is quite beautiful.

Preparing for the climb mentally (though I did this with a local guide, which I guess it makes a bit easier, especially for the labyrinth) and also to get rid of the "fear" to visit Mexico. All the people I met was super nice and helpful and the climb was just great (except maybe the last 200 m which was a bit of struggle and of course going down was just a pain :) but otherwise we had best weather conditions!
