Via Ferrata Oskar Schuster at Sassopiatto 

The Via Ferrata Oskar Schuster is located in one of the most beautiful Dolomite landscapes of Trentino-Alto Adige.
The via ferrata, opened by Oskar Schuster and Wilhelm Lohmuller in 1896, is a classic excursion for lovers of the Dolomites. The itinerary as a whole is classified as difficult. Not for the via ferrata itself, but for the whole itinerary: for the distance and the difference in height. Furthermore, maximum attention must be paid to the non-aided points of the via ferrata. From the Vetta di Mezzo of Sassopiatto you can enjoy a beautiful panorama.
ITINERARY
From the valley station of the Sassolungo cable car at Passo Sella (2180 m), go up the path 525 towards the Forcella del Sassolungo where the Rifugio Toni Demetz (2685 m) is located. Now continue the downhill path and at the Rifugio Vicenza (2253 m) take the unnumbered path and go up the Sassopiatto detrital basin for about 45 minutes until you reach the start of the via ferrata (2560 m). The via ferrata leads directly to the summit of Mezzo del Sassopiatto (2958 m). Now go down the path 527 to the Rifugio Sassopiatto (2300 m). Return to the starting point following the path 557 passing through the Pertini (2300 m) and Friedrich August (2294 m) refuges and the Forcella Rodela (2312 m).
