Loved by all who try this immensely rewarding activity as it takes in stunning scenery and wildlife as you move around impressive alpine formations, rock faces and high mountain paths. Discover the REAL mountain terrain with a guide and instructor. No special skills are required.
Via Ferrata are protected climbing routes with fixed climbing aids (ladders, rungs, wire ropes) which mostly consist of rope-assisted walks and easy to moderate climbs which do not require any special climbing skills, thus giving everyone an opportunity to move through spectacularly exposed alpine scenery with the minimum of equipment. Via Ferrata are suitable for all ages and abilities from 12 years and up.
Run by a specialist climbing school, your instructor and guide will transport you the short distance to the location or start point. It’s is a great half-day excursion and offers a unique way of seeing the mountains. We like to run the activity with other Alpine Elements guests which make for sociable groups of 8 to 12 people.
Via Ferrata are very enjoyable and a popular activity. Think of them as mountain rambles, walks and climbs which do not require any special climbing skills - giving everyone an opportunity to move through spectacular, exposed alpine scenery with minimal equipment and stunning scenery. They’re very sociable and guaranteed to raise the level of chat in our hotel bars afterwards.
