A little introduction

What is a
via ferrata?

Italian for “iron path”, a via ferrata is a climbing route fitted with steel cables and fixed footholds. It sits between hiking and rock climbing, helping you move across rock faces and reach a different view of the landscape.

You wear a helmet and harness with a dedicated, energy-absorbing via ferrata lanyard that connects to the cable. Iron rungs, steps and ladders provide handholds and footholds along the way.
