Sentiero attrezzato Felice Spellini

The Sentiero attrezzato Felice Spellini, often simply known as Via Ferrata Felice Spellini, is a classic high-alpine via ferrata located in the spectacular Brenta Dolomites, Italy. Graded 'C' (moderately difficult), it offers a demanding yet incredibly rewarding experience.

This route is more of an exposed traverse than a steep ascent, weaving its way through the dramatic, towering rock formations connecting areas like Bocca di Brenta towards Rifugio Tosa or Pedrotti. What truly defines the Spellini is its sustained exposure and incredible aerial views of the surrounding Brenta Group peaks. While the technical difficulties for a 'C' are not extreme – featuring a mix of fixed cables, some ladders, and natural rock holds – the sheer exposure, length, and often high-altitude environment (where snow and ice patches can persist even in summer) demand excellent sure-footedness, a good head for heights, and solid physical condition.

It's an unforgettable experience for experienced via ferrata enthusiasts looking for a significant high-alpine adventure, rather than a short, direct climb. It's frequently incorporated into multi-day hut-to-hut treks in the Brenta.
