Climbing the Ferrata Ciardelli, classified as a demanding Grade D, was an incredibly exhilarating and physically challenging experience. This via ferrata truly pushes the limits, requiring significant upper body strength, endurance, and a steady head for heights. We navigated steep, often vertical sections and exposed traverses, relying heavily on the meticulously placed steel cables and sparse artificial aids. There were moments that felt truly strenuous, but the sheer thrill of overcoming each difficult passage, coupled with the breathtaking panoramic views from the exposed rock face, made every effort worthwhile. It's a route for experienced climbers seeking a serious challenge and a memorable adventure.
