Ferrata del Ghiacciaio Antelao

Climbing the Ferrata del Ghiacciaio Antelao, graded B, offers an accessible yet spectacular alpine adventure in the heart of the Dolomites. Situated on the majestic slopes of Monte Antelao, often called the 'King of the Dolomites', this via ferrata is perfect for beginners, families, or those seeking a moderately challenging route without extreme exposure.

The ascent primarily involves traversing rocky sections aided by fixed steel cables and occasional short ladders. Despite its accessible grading, the route leads you into a high-alpine environment, providing glimpses of the glacier remnants that give the ferrata its name. The panoramic views of the surrounding peaks, especially the dramatic Dolomites landscape, are truly breathtaking throughout the climb.

The descent typically follows a well-marked mountain path, often through scree slopes or scenic trails, guiding you safely back to your starting point or a nearby mountain hut. It completes a rewarding round trip, allowing you to immerse yourself fully in the beauty of the high mountains.
