Via ferrata – this young sport is very popular and brings a large number of people to areas of the Alps that were previously reserved for mountaineers only. Since this also involves numerous risks and the number of accidents is increasing, a well-founded basic via ferrata course offers a great boost in safety!

As part of this via ferrata course, you will receive a basic introduction to equipment, learn the correct belaying technique, and we will give you tips and tricks for moving efficiently on the via ferrata.

Our program is designed especially for newcomers to this sport with little mountain experience, as well as for families. An exciting experience – suitable for children aged 10 and over.
