Favogna Ferrata

The via ferrata unfolds between chimneys, gullies and natural ledges, starting from the Val d'Adige valley bottom and climbing along the sheer wall that culminates in the Altopiano di Favogna. The climb is not technically difficult, but should not be underestimated due to the many exposed sections and the physical effort required by the considerable difference in height (about 900m/2950ft). It is an entirely vertical, non-stop climb where you can hardly catch your breath, with many sections equipped with steel cable, vertical ladders, aiders, alternating with a steep path through the mountain scrub. Not recommended as a "first ferrata" for beginners.
