Is this the Best Via Ferrata in the Italian Dolomites?

- If you're only ever going to do one Ferrata in the Dolomites, make it this one.
After hearing about it for years, in August I went to climb Ferrata Ivano Dibona.
I feel like this tour has everything you'd ever want from a Dolomiti Via Ferrata.
It starts by following an abandoned cable car, crosses over a 30m famous bridge (the one from the Cliffhanger movie), and takes you back in time when climbing among old WWI ruins. It's just awesome.
I've done a fair share of Ferratas in the Italian Dolomites, and Ivano Dibona is definitely one of the best.

About 33 years ago my dad took me to this via ferrata. I was about 16. He took me to so many vie ferrate that season that my memories are quite blurred. Of course I do remember the bridge. I was so scared and he was so careful that we would not only use the usual ropes and carabiners to tie ourselves to the fixed ropes, but he would also tie me with a climbing rope for extra safety. My dad made me explore amazing places in the dolomites. Thanks for sharing this beautiful video that has allowed me to revisit those beautiful places.
@@albertobelfast Thank you for watching and for sharing your story 🙏🏻
Man, you are the best! Love your videos, too bad Viv couldn't be there. Hope to see more of the preparation for the next peak of the seven summits!
I saw this on your Facebook post and subscribed here. I can’t wait to try this one! More VF is always welcome!!

amazing bro
Hello Cris,
Thank you for this beautiful video!
Would you mind sharing the list if Ferratas and their difficulty rating?
I wonder, if I know you from the Tour de Mt. Blanc video...where Viv made this funny comment;)
I had to do it in the peak season due to other commitments and went on alternative hikes away from the main route. It was worthwhile and inspired by you guys!!!
All the best:)
Mi-am si zis, ca dupa accent esti roman. Felicitari pt ceea ce faci!
@@thamyras Mersi de vizionare!
🔥🔥🔥
I loved this video! Informative with lots of details, good camera shots. Nice work!!
Is there any chance that you still have those excel files, where you wrote down the infos and difficulties atc of the via ferratas? If you have these, could you okease send it to my mail? It would help a lot for us! We are planning our first tour to the Dolomites :) Thank you very much!
@@xXboy93Xx Thank you, appreciate you watching! I don't think I have it anymore, just take a screenshot of the moment I show the excel file, it shows all of the Ferratas 👍🏼
@@TraintoSummit Do you remember maybe what was the meanings of the colors? :) Maybe the difficulty ot sg? Anyway thank you very much!
@@xXboy93Xx Yeah, the colours were the Via Ferratas that were close to each other and I could group them in one weekend, Marmolada had a colour of its own but that can also be linked with delle Trince
Hey !! Awesome videos on the Dolomites, especially the rating part. Which month like the dates are u doing it in ? Would be nice to know that for the climbers who wanna go there and to plan as well ?
@@lakshminarayansharma7474Thanks , I'm glad you're enjoying them! I did them all over August and the first week of September, but July can also be a good month to climb there
Hello! Great video! Where did you buy those sunglasses? I always have problems with my eyes on the mountains. Yours looks like solution.
@@Kethy555 I think the brand is Izipizi for those ones. Vallon does them too. Anything that's category 4 and has the side blockers does the job 💪🏻
Thanks for watching!
best way to get some work done at altitude before doing the big stuff 😁 All the best to Viv ! (views should have been a 5 you've been spoiled by the big mountain ranges)
@@YnseSchaap Definitely spoiled a bit from all the big mountains... 😂. Rating on views was difficult for all of the Ferratas coming up. In the last video I actually end up bumping Ivano Dibona to one of my favourites 😉. Thanks for watching and commenting!
@@TraintoSummit 😁
when did you go, June, july, august?
I disagree on one point :) Descending on scree can be very fun, it's basically a free ride down. I absolutely love it ! But going up.... is hell. However it depends on the granulation of the scree, I mainly refer to that type of scree that is unstable.
and I hear Rifugio son forca is the best place to stay?
@@eagoba2456 Probably in terms of proximity, I did it in a day so can't vouch for it 😂
Ferrata Ivano Dibona looks absolutely epic! Between the WWI ruins, the iconic bridge, and those views, it really seems like the ultimate Dolomites experience. Thanks for sharing this awesome adventure, definetly inspiring for anyone thinking about doing a Via Ferrata! 🧗♂
@@TalesFromAbroad-SJ 100% agree. At the end of the series I bump it up to one of my personal favourites 🔥
Where is the start point?
@@edvinaskucinskas8682 Closest town is Cortina. I started from a place called Paso Tre Croci
maybe im wrong, but it looks like a b or c ferrata?!
@@thebeke I think it's a b - definitely not too difficult. Thanks for watching!
