This guidebook, Via Ferratas of the Italian Dolomites Volume 2, is the
second in a series of two published by Cicerone Press, which now fully
replaces the previous Cicerone guidebook, Scrambles in the Dolomites,
adding many new routes through the southern, Brenta and Lake Garda
areas.Volume two documents southern Dolomites Via Ferrata routes in the
major mountain ranges of Civetta, Schiara and Pala as well as those to
the west in the Brenta. A significant addition (and, as far as we are
aware, not previously published in any English-language guidebook) is
the inclusion of routes around the northern end of Lake Garda and the
Piccole Dolomites north of Vicenza. Here the mountains are generally
lower and you can enjoy ferrata climbing over a much extended season,
with some routes accessible for most of the year. While volume one
covered the eastern, northern and central areas of the Dolomites, book
two completes the picture, focusing on the southern, Brenta and Lake
Garda areas.
