LAKE GARDA VIA FERRATA SAFARI

Arrive and check in in your hotel in Riva del Garda, a charming located at the northern tip of Lake Garda, surrounded by dramatic peaks! The Mediterranean atmosphere, the scent of lemons, and the beautiful scenery of the lakeside town nestled between the mountains…

Riva del Garda also has a rich history, reflected in its medieval architecture and historical sites, such as Torre Apponale, a tall bell tower, and the Rocca di Riva, a medieval fortress overlooking the lake. 

You might want to have a stroll in the town’s cobblestone streets, lively piazzas, and cozy cafés and you can savor a great local wine by the lake and enjoy a dinner at a restaurant in the town center.

After breakfast, you will take a private transfer to reach the starting point of the adventure of today!

The via ferrata takes you up Cima Capi, a peak that rises over 1,000 meters above the lake, providing incredible panoramas of the surrounding mountains and the sparkling waters of the lake Garda below. The route is equipped with cables, ladders, and other fixed safety aids, and it winds its way along the rock face, offering a thrilling ascent through exposed sections. As you climb, you'll pass through tunnels and enjoy a unique combination of rock, nature, and history, as the route also includes remnants of old military structures from World War I.

At the summit, you'll be rewarded with stunning 360-degree views of the Brenta Dolomites, the Sarca Valley, and the northern part of Lake Garda. The descent is equally enjoyable, often taking a different path that allows you to take in more of the surrounding natural beauty.
