The area around the Three Peaks played a central role during the tragic First World War. The front line that ran through this area was one of the most fiercely fought in the entire Dolomites. Many relics from that time can still be seen today. Most of the via ferrata routes that are well-known and popular today date back to that period. Today, these are beautiful, moderately difficult via ferrata routes in an incomparable setting, which have already established themselves as classics in the world of via ferrata climbers. As mountain guides, we always enjoy accompanying our guests to the bizarre rock world of the Three Peaks area, which, despite its great popularity, remains unique.
We will be based at a comfortable 3*** hotel in Alta Pusteria. This gives us flexibility and allows us to choose the most suitable tour destination each day based on the conditions.
