The beauty of the Dolomiti di Sesto is fascinating, because of a huge variety of different rock formations and peaks. The "vie ferrate" lead you over exposed rock shelves, past steep walls, over ridges and through gullies. Admire the Tre Cime of Lavaredo, the best-known peaks of the Dolomites and towering at almost 3000m!
