 VIA-FERRATA

        The wall!

A via ferrata  is a mountain route which is equipped with fixed cables, stemples, ladders and bridges. Their use allows otherwise isolated routes to be reached in order to create longer routes accessible to people with a wide range of climbing abilities. Walkers and climbers can follow the via ferratas without the need of extra ropes and belays, and without the risks associated with unprotected scrambling and climbing. They are found in a number of areas in the southern Alps: Tende, La Brigue, Peille, la Colmiane, Puget Thénier.... The first via ferratas were built in the  Italian Dolomite Mountain region during the First World War, to help the mountain infantry to overcome the rocky chains.
