Why it enters the Top 100

What makes this climb different?

Ferrata C should not be confused with the family trail: it leaves the path near the tunnel and crosses a short exposed section of 40 metres. The approach path was cut into the wall with two tunnels in the 1950s, giving this short initiation a setting disproportionate to its length.
