Grand tour di vie ferrate nelle Dolomiti di Brenta

• Day One
  walking time – 7h (5h via ferrata).
  We meet the Guide at 14.30 and we check the equipment before the departure. We ascend to Pian del Grostè with the cable car and we enjoy a brief hike which will take us to our first hut (2661 m). Dinner and night at the hut.

• Day Two: Sentiero Benini
  walking time: 5h – via ferrata 3h
  From the Passo del Grostè (2442 m) we reach the first fixed-rope route, the Sentiero Benini. This is an ideal introduction to the amazing world of vie ferrate. Enjoying the landscape over the rocky peaks of Val Flavona, we walk around the massif of Cima Grostè, the slopes of Cima Falkner in the direction of Bocca del Tuckett. In the end, we descend to the hut and spend the second night.

• Day Three: Ferrata delle Bocchette Alte
  walking time 7h – via ferrata 4h
  After a regenerating breakfast we ascend to the vedretta of Brenta Inferiore, until the starting point of Bocchette Alte (2649 m), which will take us to Cima Brenta, after many vertical ladders and exposed passages. While in Bocca Alta dei Massodi, we climb up the famous ladder Scala degli Amici – 30 meters – that will take us to Spallone dei Massodi (3000 m), at the highest elevation of the entire adventure. Dinner and night at the hut (2580 m).

• Day Four: Ferrata delle Bocchette Centrali
  walking time 7h – via ferrata 5h
  It’s the most spectacular section of the entire path. This section is characterized by the exposition of some passages on Molveno’s side and by the breath-taking traverse under the Campanil Basso (2620 m). The via ferrata ends once reached the Bocca di Brenta; from here we start the descent on a long path through the wild Val d’Ambiez, in the southern part of Brenta Group. Dinner and night at the hut (2410 m).

• Day Five: Sentiero Brentari
  walking time 6h – via ferrata 3h
  We ascend directly to Vedretta d’Ambiez, on the slopes of the same peak, until the start of the ferrata Brentari on the top of the snowfield. From here, the iron-path will develop along the southern wall of the Cima Tosa, until the homonym Sella (2859 m), which ends in Rifugio Pedrotti (2491 m). Last section on the trail until Brenta Alta. Dinner and night in the hut (2182 m).

• Day 6: Sentiero Sosat
  walking time 6h – via ferrata 3h
  The Sentiero Sosat is a well-known – and pretty easy – via ferrata which is builton the eastern side of Gruppo di Brenta, taking the advantage of iron ladders, and brings us admiring the Vedretta degli Sfulmini, a natural amphitheatre between dolomitic crags. It ends in Rifugio Tuckett, from here we reach Vallesinella (1513 m). Dinner and night stay at the hut (2580 m) included in the adventure.
