Via ferrata Felice Spellini, Brenta Dolomites
<p>A relatively <strong>unfrequented</strong>, <strong>highly challenging</strong> via ferrata along <strong>exposed sections</strong> and cliff faces beneath<strong> Cima degli Armi</strong>. Quick return to Rifugio Pedrotti and Rifugio Alimonta <strong>from Bocchette Centrali</strong>.</p>
<p>The via ferrata Felice Spellini runs along the southern spur of<strong> Cima degli Armi</strong> along vertical cliff faces and ladders, which call for a good head for heights and strong arms. Four challenging ladders and 400m (1,312 ft) of cable connect <strong>Valle dei Massodi</strong> (from the Moveno side) to the hanging <strong>glacier Vedretta degli Armi</strong> (on the Madonna di Campiglio side) and on to <strong>Rifugio Pedrotti</strong> and <strong>Rifugio Alimonta</strong> for a quick return to the lodges for those who are arriving from the <strong>Bocchette Centrali route</strong>.</p> <p>Although not particularly difficult, the hanging glacier may require the use of pickaxes and crampons. The access trail starts from the <strong>Osvaldo Orsi trail</strong> near the quiet, untamed <strong>Busa degli Sfulmini</strong>, from where there is a great view of the spectacular Campanile Basso and Cima Brenta Alta.</p>
