    This is the second tour I've done with Gi. Last year we did Gran Paradiso and some preparation days. I specifically asked Gi to take me around the Dolomites because I feel so safe with him but never bored!! He knows how to take me out of my comfort zone so that I'm always being challenged but never terrified. I know, also, that he would shape the tour to suit me - if I wanted comfort that's what he would do but I like to challenge myself. I had the most amazing mixed trip with beautiful via ferrata, climbing and trekking and, of course, the wonderful 'hut life' :) I'm already planning next year's trip with Gi! He also helps me with recommendation for travel etc. I can't recommend Gi enough for your Dolomites experience

    Walking through the ww1 tunnels and seeing where they lived. How they had to climb up the mountain with no light and no talking. I was very surprised that I was able to climb a via ferrata. 😘

    Giovanni is an excellent guide, he was very patient in explaining the safety measures and giving us the necessary advice to complete the Via Ferrata without any problem. It was an incredible experience in which my wife and I had a lot of fun. After completing the Via Ferrata, we took a short walk where we visited some trenches and at the end we climbed to the top of the mountain.

    What to expect

    The Sass de Stria via ferrata is an easy equipped route that allows us to visit one of the places where the First World War most raged. More than the technical difficulties, quite limited, the peculiarity of the course is undoubtedly historical, naturalistic and scenic. Once we reach the top, we will descend along the trenches and fortifications still present today on the mountain ridge. A day in which we will find tunnels, trenches and workstations dating back a hundred years, equipped with a headlight, helmet and harness. A day to live and to touch the horrors of war, a day not to forget ...
