Climbing the Via Ferrata Angelo Viali, which often includes the Via Ferrata Ezio Ferrari, is a truly demanding and exhilarating experience, graded a challenging D. This route is renowned for its significant exposure, long vertical sections, and sometimes overhanging passages that test both strength and nerve. It's a serious alpine undertaking, requiring excellent physical condition, a strong head for heights, and prior via ferrata experience. The protection, consisting of sturdy steel cables, iron rungs, and occasional ladders, is generally very good, but the sheer difficulty and length of the climb demand unwavering focus. As you ascend, you're rewarded with breathtaking panoramic views of the surrounding Dolomitic peaks and valleys, making every strenuous move worthwhile. This isn't just a climb; it's an unforgettable adventure that pushes your limits and immerses you in the raw beauty of the high mountains.
