The Dolomites - Rock Climbs and Via Ferrata
The Dolomites - Rock Climbs and Via Ferrata
The Dolomites are one of Europe’s most complete and varied climbing destinations, where both the enthusiastic novice and seasoned veteran are catered for in abundance; single pitch sport crags sit next to kilometre-long traditional routes; historical 'rites of passage' run parallel to modern bolted desperates.
This guide covers everything you need for a climbing trip regardless of ability, whether it be sport, trad, via ferrata or a combination of all three. It features all the major areas and is the only guidebook available to have such comprehensive coverage.
“a publication that has to be the best Dolomite guidebook ever produced, and must take its place as one of the best published in the world to date””
