Corno Grande (Gran Sasso)

Corno Grande (2,912m) is the highest peak in the Apennine Mountains, forming the central massif of the Gran Sasso d'Italia in Italy. The 'Via Normale' (Normal Route) is the primary non-climbing ascent originating from the Campo Imperatore plateau. The trail traverses high-altitude karst terrain, characterized by barren limestone slopes and significant verticality. The route includes sustained climbs through the 'Brecciaio' scree field and a final Class 2 limestone scramble to the western summit. Positioned between the Adriatic and Tyrrhenian seas, the summit provides significant regional visibility over the central Italian peninsula.

One of the longest, deepest, and most impressive gorges in the Alps. The Liechtensteinklamm is famous for its narrow walls that are so close they almost block out the sky. Following a massive rockfall in 2017, the gorge was upgraded with the 'Helix'—a spectacular spiral staircase made of corten steel that descends 30 meters into the depths of the chasm. The path leads over bridges and through tunnels to a massive 50-meter waterfall at the end of the walkable section.
