The Fausto Susatti via ferrata at Cima Capi is located on the northwest shore of Lake Garda and is part of the Brescian Pre-Alps. The ferrata almost always follows the edge of the ridge, and sheer views of Lake Garda await us that we are sure you will not forget. In addition to the views, Cima Capi is also famous for historical artifacts from the Great War, with trenches, concrete walkways, and caves to explore with a flashlight.
This via ferrata is easy and fun but due to its length it requires minimal physical preparation. We will start from Biacesa walking for about an hour along a beautiful path through the woods; then the steel cable, a few steps and passages that are never too exposed or challenging will take us to the summit.
Despite its length, it is also suitable for young people and families who crave adventure.
