protected routes - via ferratas

Ok, I'm already quite interested in some "extremes" regarding ferratas:

1.longest in SLO/Julian Alps(around/near SLO border), EU, world?
2.highest in SLO, EU, world?
3.hardest in SLO, EU, world?

By feel I'd say:
1.SLO : hanzova on prisank
2.SLO : triglav...(plemenice)?
3.julian alps : vevnica (path of life)

for the rest no idea..
if there are some links, great too..

nice day!

For the hardest in the Dolomites the ferrata Costantini on Cima Moiazza Sud still holds. It is very long and strenuous and has two short extremely demanding spots. Technically it seems somewhat easier to me than Cesare Piazzetta on Piz Boe, Cesco Tommaselli on Cima Fanis Sud and Kaiserjager on Col Ombert.

Via della Vita seems completely comparable to me with the hardest Dolomite ferratas, Via italiana however is a class easier.
