The Gran Vernel is one of the highest peaks of the Dolomites but only few climbers climb it every year.
Thanks to the perfect weather of the last week-end, on Saturday we climb the normal route (max III+) meeting only two paragliders flying over the summit! The same day, just in front of us, there was a long queue on the west ridge via ferrata of Marmolada… but the Marmolada is the highest in the Dolomites.
