Via Ferrata delle Bocchette Centrali — via ferrata in Madonna di Campiglio

Dolomiti di Brenta · Madonna di Campiglio, Trentino-Alto Adige

The best-known of the Brenta ferratas — it runs along rock ledges through the heart of the massif, starting from Rifugio Brentei. Also called Sentiero Benini/Bocchette; famous for the horseshoe-shaped, narrow (about 50 cm) Sentiero Figari ledge, well protected despite the exposure.

German-language guidebooks note a B/C variant on a few exposed ledges — this is the most popular and easiest of the great Brenta ferratas.
