The via ferrata Ottorino Marangoni, inaugurated in 1976, is one of the most challenging in the Alps. It develops on a rocky wall above the small Sanctuary of Monte Albano, offering an adrenaline experience with vertical sections, exposed crosswalks and athletic passages. In 2014, thanks to a retooling operation, numerous aids were added to the progression, making the path easier while maintaining its challenging character. The panoramic view of the Vallagarina and the south-east exposure make it passable in all seasons; although it is advisable to walk, during the hottest and sunny days, only in the afternoon after 3 p.m.
