Ferrata Anelli delle Anguane (variant E) - B/C
Predicting whether..
Characteristics
A true via ferrata Eldorado was created in the west-facing rock walls above Valbastico, which appeals primarily to beginners and pleasure climbers. In rounds (rings) you can climb various variants on the almost 200 m high rock wall. A total of approximately 1300 meters of steel cable (as of November 2018) were laid. Narrow bands, a great Tibet bridge and beautiful, partially exposed but never really demanding vertical passages alternate with stepped terrain where you can rest well. Away from the hustle and bustle of tourism around Lake Garda, you can spend a really nice via ferrata day in this great landscape, after which you end the day in the small bar or the Caverne Agriturismo Al Cucco in a cozy and very Italian way.
