The "Vallon Klettersteig" on Piz Boe is a classic and highly popular via ferrata in the Dolomites, located in the impressive Sella Group. Graded C, it offers a moderately difficult climbing experience, suitable for those with some prior via ferrata experience, good fitness, and a head for heights. The route is characterized by well-secured sections with steel cables, occasional pegs, and some short ladders, leading through exposed terrain. While not overly athletic, it demands sure-footedness and proper via ferrata equipment. The Klettersteig provides breathtaking panoramic views of the surrounding Dolomite peaks, often serving as an exhilarating ascent route to the summit of Piz Boe (3,152 m), one of the highest peaks in the Sella Group. Access is typically from the Vallon chairlift station, followed by a walk to the start. The descent from Piz Boe often involves easier paths or other ferratas. It's renowned for its spectacular scenery and manageable challenge, making it a memorable Dolomite adventure.
