Description

Join us for this exciting half-day adventure climbing on Scotland’s only Via Ferrata!

We will meet in Kinlochleven, which is located less than one hour south of Fort William. Once we have gone over the proper use of all the equipment, we hit the rails!

The next several hours will be spent climbing up the Via Ferrata alongside Scotland’s second biggest waterfall, crossing wire bridges and rushing down ziplines.

The Via Ferrata allows us to make this epic 500-metre journey around a wondrous, and previously undiscovered, natural bedrock amphitheatre, before heading back down.

All the while we will be immersed in the picturesque scenery of the Western Scottish Highlands, afforded the occasional gorgeous views of both the waterfall as well as the hamlet of Kinlochleven.

No prior experience is required for this adventure, just a fair amount of physical fitness, which makes this the perfect outing for both families and groups of friends.

Man

Climbing with guide Guillaume was absolutely a highlight of my 2-week Europe vacation. Originally, we were planning on climbing in the Calanques, but the park was closed due to wind and fire danger. Guillaume chose another amazing location (Pic de Bretagne) based on my climbing abilities and preferences and kindly offered train station pick-up and hotel drop off, which I appreciated very much. The multi-pitch route we did was not only fun but also the right amount of challenge, which I thoroughly enjoyed. The communication from the team (Gauthier) was prompt and clear—highly recommend!

Maxine

Luis Silva was a great climbing guide and belayer! He taught me how to do moves that were difficult and encouraged me to try routes that were challenging for me! Because of his encouragement, I managed to complete these routes! I really enjoyed the climbs and completed 8 routes in the Sesimbra/Azoia area. The weather was perfect, no direct sun and cool enough to enjoy the climbs. Explore-Share made booking an outdoor climbing experience in Lisbon extremely easy. Luis, our guide, was fantastic, and the platform’s organization was flawless.

We had Léo as a guide for our day climb in Fonty. We were blessed with a knowledgeable, warm, and instructive guide. Communication with Léo and Ivan was smooth and swift. Explore-Share was excellent in arranging everything for our day climb. The communication was quick, and the platform was easy to use, making our adventure stress-free.

Patrick was a great guide. He took us on an intermediate Via Ferrata at Passo Sella. Renato was quick to respond with any outreach on the Explore-Share platform. The booking process was straightforward, and once Patrick was confirmed, all went well. It was a wonderful experience, and I’d highly recommend the platform.
