Klettersteig-KlassikerDer Oskar-Schuster-Steig am Plattkofel ist keine Spaß-Ferrata, sondern ein alpin anspruchsvoller Steig.

This easy via ferrata with difficulty level A, which is only secured along sections, is an ideal destination for children to gain their first via ferrata experience and also to stand on a real Dolomite summit with a fantastic view at the end.

Magnificent Dolomite summit on an easy via ferrata with a fantastic view of the Sassolungo group.

The Pößnecker via ferrata is a classic among the via ferrata routes in the Dolomites. This difficult via ferrata through the vertical rock was built back in 1912. The previously unsecured sections of the via ferrata have since been made safer after the airy chimney was also secured. The second section of the via ferrata is easy throughout, allowing you to enjoy the surrounding mountain scenery. The hike across the extensive Sella plateau is impressive. Even the descent into the valley between the mighty Dolomite walls through Val Lastiés is an experience.

Interesting summit via ferrata in the heart of the Dolomites

The ascent to the Große Cirspitze, which is only partially secured with steel ropes, is not particularly long and is also suitable as a quick "afternoon detour" in stable weather conditions. Experienced and sure-footed mountaineers can manage without via ferrata equipment, but not without a helmet! The tour is a good project for via ferrata beginners (the right equipment is of course a prerequisite here) who already have some experience on easy, unsecured rocky terrain. For parents with solid via ferrata experience, this tour can be a great experience together with the children (children should be on the rope from the start to the summit!).

The via ferrata on Col Rodella is a short, beginner-friendly via ferrata.

The traverse of the main peak of the Geislerspitzen, the Sass Rigais, is a demanding but extremely rewarding undertaking in the dreamlike scenery of the Dolomites combined with the adventure of a not too difficult via ferrata over a real three-thousand-metre peak.
