The history of climbing in Friuli Venezia Giulia is one of the most important in Italy, since it arises from the careers of mountaineers the likes of Comici and Carlesso, who “invented”, out of the blue and in the first decade of 20th century, Val Rosandra and Dardago as a playground where it was possible to train for more ambitious tasks in the Dolomites. This area, which can be roughly divided into three different sections, features several charming and testing crags and walls, well-suited both for the beginner and for the pro. It includes the renowned overhangs of Erto, the small crags of the local Dolomites, the Tarvisio and Carnia walls; Trieste is also reviewed and carefully described: its famous crags such as Costiera and Napoleonica are of course featured in this book. Then, we have “the other side”, just across the border. Osp, Mišja Pec and Crni Kal are well-known all over Europe. Once they were mostly forbidden, but right now they are destinations for every climber in Europe. This second edition of a comprehensive guidebook has been born thanks to the collaboration of an active community, whose members do believe in promoting and sharing the beauty of their lands. 432 pages language italian edition 2020 D.

The itineraries described include not only via ferratas that cross the most famous mountain groups, but also many equipped paths that, although less famous than the Costantini, Zacchi and Alleghesi, respect the orography and the very essence of the mountains - logical and panoramic routes that have been followed for centuries by hunters and shepherds. On these paths you hike in solitude, only the sound of your own footsteps breaks the silence here. So every hiker can find his or her own via ferrata, his or her own path, whether it be challenging or sporty vertical experiences or routes over rocky outcrops and through chimneys, where the via ferrata rope is almost only a secondary safety device.nisse oder Routen über Felsvorsprünge und durch Kamine, bei denen das Klettersteigseil fast nur eine zweitrangige Sicherheitsvorrichtung ist.described via ferrata1 – Marmarole – Corno Del Doge – Cengia del Doge2 – Marmarole – Forcella Vanedel – Strada Sanmarchi3 – Marmarole – Cimon del Froppa – Forcella Marmarole4 – Marmarole – Monte Ciastelin – Sentiero dei Camosci5 – Marmarole – Cimon del Froppa – Sentiero degli Alpini e Forcella Froppa6 – Marmarole – Monte Ciarido – Sentiero Amalio Da Prà7 – Brentoni – Monte Tudaio – Sentiero dei Mede8 – Antelao – Forcella del Ghiacciaio – Ferrata del Cadorin9 – Antelao – Crode di San Piero e Croda Mandrin – Sentiero Alpinistico Attrezzato10 – Centro Cadore – Domegge – Ferrate Sportive11 – Centro Cadore – Val Prigioniera – Sentiero Attrezzato del Gufo12 – Cridola – Cresta del Miaron – Sentiero Olivato13 – Civetta – Col Reàn – Via Antersass e Scale di Ciesamatta14 – Civetta – Palazza Alta – Ferrata Fiamme Gialle15 – Civetta – Ferrata degli Alleghesi16 – Civetta – Ferrata Tissi17 – Civetta – Passo del Tenente (via normale Sentiero Tivan)18 – Moiazza – Cima Moiazza Sud – Ferrata Costantini19 – Spiz de Mezzodì – Ferrata Sora ‘l Sass e Sentiero del Belvedere20 – Prampèr – Val Pramperét – Scalet del Pissandol21 – Bosconero – Viaz de le Ponte22 – Piz de Sagron – Passo del Comedon – L’Intaiada23 – Vajont – Ferrata della Memoria24 – La Schiara – Forcella de la Gusela – Ferrata Sperti25 – La Schiara – Ferrata Zacchi e Ferrata Berti26 – La Schiara – Pelf – Ferrata Marmol (Rossi) e Ferrata Guardiano27 – Antelao – Sentiero Bortolo De Lorenzo28 – Civetta – Vant delle Nevere29 – Pelmo – Sentiero Flaibani30 – Cima Nord di San Sebastiano – Cengia del Sasso di Caleda31 – Vette Feltrine – Sentiero delle Laste32 – Vette Feltrine – Cenge del Sasso Scarnia33 – Cimònega – Val Caorame34 – Cimònega – Busa del Cadinel35 – Monte Pizzocco – Sentiero dello Scalon36 – Monti del Sole – Valle Soffia220 pagesLanguage Italian, English, GermanEdition 2015Andrea GreciIdea Montagna Editoria
