Via delle Bocchette (Alfredo Benini + Alte + Centrali)
The Bocchette trail in the Brenta Dolomites! A unique route, traversing along incredible ledges, from saddle (= bocchetta) to saddle, just below the highest peaks of the Brenta group. A via ferrata classic if there ever was one! As far as via ferrata is concerned, the routes are not particularly difficult (up to C / K3, mostly...

Sass Rigais (east-west traverse)
Being located within 20 minutes of the Col Raiser cable car, the large, well-equipped Regensburger Hütte is quite a contrast to the much more rustic Swiss SAC huts that I'm used to. Still, spending the night here is an excellent way to be on the popular Sass Rigais route long before the crowds arrive by gondola. As a bonus, the...

Col dala Pieres + Piz Duleda

The weather forecast for day one was not that great either, but we took our chance anyway, and we were rewarded for that. ---- We take the cable car up to Col Raiser and start in a slightly descending line past the Regensburger Hütte...

Via ferrata Sandro Pertini
Day two of my Pentecost weekend in the Dolomites. Via ferrata is one of the main attractions in the Dolomites for me, and this was going to be my first one: the via ferrata Sandro Pertini, located near Wolkenstein. ---- The via ferrata Sandro Pertini has been the subject of some controversy. It is located in a national park...

Peitlerkofel
My CouchSurfing host Kurt suggested a hike on the Peitlerkofel. At 2875 metres above sea level, there was still some snow to be expected, but he expected the south-facing ascent route to be fine. And going high was not a bad idea, with a heat wave bringing temperatures of 35°C to Südtirol. It proved to be a great plan. The...
