This path leads through the imposing rock reign of the Sesto Dolomites and the splendid Dolomites massifs Sorapis and Antelao. This route is recommended for experienced mountaineers only. Numerous sections lead along secured fixed-aid climbs amidst steep walls, and many easier climbing passages are present. Despite it’s difficulty, path no. 4 is not overly demanding, since the path is located above the treeline for the most part and it does not feature huge differences in altitude.

Stages: 8 -10 days
