Via Ferrata Ottorino Marangoni

DESCRIPTION
Historic via ferrata that still gives an adrenaline rush.
The Mori via ferrata dates back to the 1970s and was inaugurated in 1976. At that time it was considered extreme. Recently, in 2014, it has been modified and made easier. It is currently considered difficult or moderately difficult. The numerous interventions, especially brackets, have facilitated its usability, but the grips for greasy and slippery hands and feet, with the addition of the high exposure, still make it an adrenaline-filled via ferrata.
The ferrata is called in many ways: Via Ferrata O. Marangoni, Ferrata di Monte Albano, Ferrata di Mori.
The via ferrata is exposed to the south and therefore be careful in hot periods.
