The Most Technical Via Ferrata in the Dolomites? | Magnifici 4

Train to Summit

14,031 views

They say this Via Ferrata is harder than the legendary Punta Anna. They were not wrong...

I heard of Via Ferrata Magnifici 4 for years, but with it's reputation as 'The Hardest Via Ferrata in the Italian Dolomites' and 'An Extreme Via Ferrata', admittedly, I posponed it for a few years.

Located in Val di Fassa, this Via Ferrata has a unique location – a gorge.
It has you climbing dusty, steep and overhanging walls, at parts with no holds, and straight away you realise this 'Klettersteig' means buisness.

Get ready for a serious arm workout as we take on this Grade E beast to see if it truly deserves the title of the most technical climb in the Dolomites.

I'm attempting to become the first person to climb the 7 Summits (the highest peak on each continent) completely self-powered from sea level and back to sea level.

Hi Chris & Viv. I did this ferrata yesterday with my partner Graham. It was amazing. The exposure on the traverse was epic. It's the hardest one we have done so far. We enjoy watching your videos. They are entertaining and informative. Thanks and we look forward to doing more of these routes.

Amazing video as always. Just one tip I can give you guys, I’m not sure you guys do it or not, but you should get into sports climbing I’ve found that it’s helps A LOT with via ferratas and also in mountaineering especially if you want to do extreme mountaineering

A very nice via ferrata. It brought back memories from July, and it brought a tear to my eye. In my opinion, the Stella Alpine via ferrata is more demanding than the Magnifici 4
Best regards.

Did this last year. We had nice weather like you. Was a bit wetter at the start and therefore very slippery. We really enjoyed the view into the valley.

Great video! The via Ferrata looked absolutely epic. Also way above any difficulty level I'm willing to try😂
