Top 4 Caves around Besenello

One of the many shelters built by the military

Once the first segment of the via ferrata is over, the path climbs steeply into the woods and comes out into a stream that flows down from the rock face, at the base of which water flows out into a cave.

This stretch of trail is particularly evocative, with sections dug into the rock and cycle tunnels.

The Vis Ferrata Giulio Segata is a short, tough via ferrata that is divided into two sections. The second section is even harder than the first section, but becomes easier again as you go up. It starts over long smooth steep walls (E). At the top you climb through a cave with all kinds of stepping aids (C).

'Tunnel dei Fucilieri' in the signage: Austro-Hungarian defensive tunnel from the Great War, which passes through the grassy hill of Smelzar, at the foot of Forte Dosso delle Somme, with posts at regular intervals aimed at the underlying Val Terragnolo. Upon exiting, you suddenly emerge onto an exposed but extraordinary panoramic balcony between Val Terragnolo and the Altopiano di Lavarone, before arriving with a steep climb to the fortress.

extremely difficult via ferrata and not signposted the approach ... personally I did not find the start, I traveled back through the life of escape and climbed the second stretch .... do not contend with the nearby aided path .... you can see immediately when it goes up that this via ferrata is not trivial

Rarely is the ratio of ascent to ascent length so bad, but it's worth it. Climbing through the two caves is great and there are also some real challenges in terms of climbing. Anyone who doesn't quite dare should think about securing a rope - a mistake here could be quite painful in many places. As usual, topo can be found at bergsteiger.com.

Short and quite challenging via ferrata. Smooth but well-structured rock at the entrance - still quite a cold start. Spreading helps in the tunnel, on the slippery slab only friction climbing really helps - and you have to know how strong you can do it. The rock becomes increasingly rough towards the top. The E plate has so many grips and steps that it actually belongs to the easier sections (ok, the grips are sometimes quite small), above (D) there are enough pins installed - if you can step up high enough, the maximum is B/ C, if you don't make it, it will be hard. Finally, from the second cave, grippy rock and enjoy until the exit to the PlateU.
