A long and challenging via ferrata, which requires a good training, but offers breathtaking views on the Sarca Valley!

 

A marvellous route up the east wall of Monte Casale which at 1500 metres is one of the most imposing bastions of the Prealps. The immense concave wall is veined with dozens of climbing routes of the highest level. The protected route climbs for 1200 m along the south face of the great concavity. As you climb higher you feel smaller and smaller amid this sea of rock surrounding you on all sides. Once you reach the summit of Monte Casale, the surroundings change abruptly and bare rock gives way to flowering meadows.

The ferrata does not have any particularly challenging sections but you do need to be in perfect physical health,  very fit, and have excellent weather conditions given the length of the ferrata and the absence of any escape routes.
