Secured route for using a via ferrata kit

Hello,
I'd like to visit some more mountains where I could secure myself with the kit at key spots. In summer I went up Triglav via Tomiškova and descended via Prag. I wasn't scared. I was careful though. Very  . I have enough fitness. Exposed spots bother me, especially wall traverses or descents. But if I'm clipped in, I feel good. Could you suggest some ascent where there are no exposed spots where I couldn't clip in.
Someone suggested Mangart from Belopeška Lakes.
Please provide suggestions.

Heh , for that, best use the trips search on hribi.net:

Also some book/guide e.g. 100 most beautiful hikes in Slovenian mountains (or similar) will give you some idea.

Mangart from Belopeška Lakes is substantially harder than any path on Triglav. I'd suggest one of the vias ferratas on Prisojnik or Hanzova on Mojstrovka (though this one is already quite airy). Alternative also secured path to Bavski Grintavec.

Via Della Vita up over Koritniški Mangart and down Via Italiani. Here you might find what you're looking for.

Guys don't bullshit. Via della vita is an extremely ruined path. Cables torn where they are and such, not to mention scrambling to via italiana. Very unsuitable tour for someone with little ferrata experience who states that uninsured exposed spots (such as when scrambling scree) are a problem for him. Be careful with advice you give!

Recommending Path of Life to someone who is not a mountaineer is a bad joke. Here he will really experience much more than he's looking for!!!

What about Gradiška tour above Vipava? Not really high mountains, but fun ferrata, nicely accessible, less than an hour long, well placed, not easy at all, not unpleasant either, descent via bypass path.
If it seems too easy, maybe Mala Mojstrovka, Hanzova path and descent via normal back to Vršič. Nicely secured, cable at hand (or at carabiners), rocks for approx. 1h 20min.

The path to Storžič via Žrelo seems quite suitable for what you're looking for, very well secured and no sheer drops. In my opinion it's one of the ferratas with plenty of cables and thus excellent for getting used to the via ferrata kit.
Good luck and safe steps.

Gradiška is harder than Hanzova to Mojstrovka. But true, it's short.

Big thanks for the suggestions.
I just did Gradiška and it went fine .
So Hanzova and Storžič would be suitable too.
