Via Ferrata degli Angeli
The Via Ferrata degli Angeli follows the southern ridge of Tavolara, ascending from the sea towards the island’s highest peak. The equipped route is divided into several sections, totalling approximately 600 meters of adrenaline and spectacular perspectives.
From start to finish, the Via Ferrata degli Angeli unfolds in a truly unique setting, with 360-degree views of the granite mountains of northern Sardinia and the various islets that adorn the beautiful coast, from Molara to Caprera and La Maddalena.
Two-thirds along the path to the summit of Tavolara (564 meters above sea level), the equipped route ends, and our itinerary continues for another 20 minutes across the rugged fields at the top of the island Before reaching the summit, it’s possible to rappel down (two descents of 55 and 35 meters) to reach the trail below and return to the starting point at Spalmatore Beach. Alternatively, you can reach the summit and descend on the other side by retracing the Normal Via Ferrata route.
The Vie Ferrata degli Angeli is unparalleled A perfect combination of adventure on high rock walls and views of the crystal-clear sea of Sardinia
DIFFICULTY
Do not underestimate the difficulty of this via ferrata. The Via Ferrata degli Angeli is very challenging, and all participants must be able to walk on very uneven and steep paths, climb vertical rock sections using the cable, and above all, not be afraid of heights. Additionally, being south-facing, the Via Ferrata degli Angeli may be unfeasible during hot days, or when the Scirocco wind blows during the hot months between June and October. During this period, we only climb the island of Tavolara via the classic trail, which includes the Via Ferrata Normale, easier and shaded for most of the day.
