Variations

BEGINNER’S VERSION

A three-day variation of the Dolomiti senza confini is recommended for less experienced via ferrata climbers. The combination of day 7, day 8 and day 9, offers a good opportunity to slowly approach the entire Dolomites without borders and the difficult daily stages. Although these are the technically and physically easiest stages of the via ferrata round, they are by no means to be taken lightly and should not be underestimated. The item “In case of bad weather or exhaustion” should be taken into account in the planning. Here are good suggestions how the day trips can be shortened and simplified. You can find more information on day 7 on page 64.

CADINI GROUP VERSION

This three-day via ferrata tour leads through the wild and rugged Dolomite landscape of the Cadini group. Although this small mountain range is right next to the Drei Zinnen, it is not overcrowded and you can be quite lonely on some sections.

Also with this tour many variations and different starting points are possible. In this guidebook the route from the Auronzohütte is described, because it is so easy to combine with the “classic” Dolomites senza confini. The Cadini group version can be integrated between day 6 and day 7 and can be found on page 82.
