photogenic mountain passes of the Dolomites. Passo Giau connects Cortina with Selva Di Cadore in the Fiorentina Valley. The route is a circuit, and it is best to follow it counterclockwise. This is a beginner route, so if you have never done a via ferrata before, this is a good one to test your gear and learn new skills.  <\/p>\n\n<\/div>\n<\/section>\n\n<section class=\"gb-container gb-container-a0101494\">\n\n<h3 class=\"gb-headline gb-headline-2f818876\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"The_map_of_the_via_ferrata_Ra_Gusela\"><\/span><span class=\"gb-icon\"><svg viewBox=\"0 0 180 180\" version=\"1.1\" id=\"Layer_1\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\"><defs><style>.st0,.st1{fill:none;stroke:#000;stroke-width:10px}.st0{stroke-linejoin:round}.st1{stroke-miterlimit:10}<\/style><\/defs><path class=\"st1\" d=\"M116.39 31.27c0 19.55-26.35 38.77-26.35 38.77S63.69 50.66 63.69 31.27c0-14.55 11.8-26.35 26.35-26.35s26.35 11.8 26.35 26.35Z\"><\/path><path class=\"st0\" d=\"m90.38 173.98-44.6-18.25-39.12 18.39 11.39-85.9 33.76-18.18 38.57 16.75v87.19z\"><\/path><path class=\"st0\" d=\"m90.36 173.98 44.6-18.25 39.12 18.39-11.39-85.9-33.77-18.18-38.56 16.75M45.78 155.73l6.03-85.69M134.96 155.73l-6.04-85.69\"><\/path><circle class=\"st1\" r=\"9.59\" cy=\"31.73\" cx=\"90.03\"><\/circle><\/svg><\/span><span class=\"gb-headline-text\">The map of the via ferrata Ra Gusela<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n<div class=\"gb-container gb-container-884dd659\">\n\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.google.com\/maps\/d\/embed?mid=1tDhQdWX_5oSqRuYLwkpqp5QPBax7HUs&#038;ehbc=2E312F\" width=\"1200\" height=\"480\"><\/iframe>\n\n\n\n<p>The above map is for visualisation purposes only.

After ca. 100 meters, you will reach a sign pointing right toward Via Ferrata &#8220;Nuvolau&#8221; (path no. 438). This is another name the via ferrata Ra Gusela is known for. It takes its name from Nuvolau &#8211; the second summit the ferrata leads to.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>On\u00a0the top of Mount Nuvolau stands one of the <span style=\"box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;\">Dolomites&#8217; oldest and\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/inafarawayland.com\/best-mountain-huts-in-the-italian-dolomites\/\" target=\"_blank\">most photogenic mountain huts<\/a><\/span>. The hut bears the same name as the summit on which it stands.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The ferrata initially scales the eastern side of Ra Gusela, and&nbsp;it&#8217;s straightforward. The route is marked with red\/white paint marks. The cable protection is intermittent. After around&nbsp;40 minutes of scrambling, you will reach a fork. The summit of Ra Gusela will be to your left and Nuvolau to your right.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I recommend that you first tick off the summit of Ra Gusela. Brace yourself for some jaw-dropping views upon reaching the top. It&#8217;s a 360-degree panorama that includes Tofane, Cristallo, and Sorapiss groups.\u00a0Mount Pelmo, Antelao, Civetta, and Marmolada &#8211; Dolomite&#8217;s highest peaks can be seen from the peak.\u00a0Passo Giau, where you started, will be visible below.\u00a0You will also see Rifugio Nuvolau, your next objective for today.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>From the summit of Ra Gusela, descend back to the fork. You will first drop down around 100 meters before climbing up again along a series of ladders and a few cable-protected sections to Rifugio Nuvolau.\u00a0From Nuvolau, continue downhill along path no. 438.\u00a0This time marked for Rifugio Averau. It&#8217;s a quick 30-minute hike down to the hut.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-background\" style=\"background-color:#48bda336\"><strong>TIP:<\/strong> Once you reach Rifugio Averau, you can extend your day b<span style=\"box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;\">y adding only 2 hours to the itinerary and scramble to the summit of Mount Averau along <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/inafarawayland.com\/via-ferrata-averau\/\" data-type=\"post\" data-id=\"666\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">via ferrata Averau.<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>From Rifugio Averau, follow&nbsp;path no.&nbsp;452 towards Passo Giau.
