FAQs: Via Ferrata
What should I know about Via Ferrata ?
To help you climb or traverse a vertical landscape safely and securely, via ferratas are protected climbing routes built with cables, bridges, ladders, ziplines and more. They are especially popular in the Alps, where they originated to help troops cross the mountain during World War I – via ferrata translates to “iron path” in Italian. However, due to their increasing popularity, today they can be found around the world. While routes range in difficulty and intensity, many are appropriate for beginning climbers, including kids, and previous experience is not always required. Booking a qualified mountain guide will ensure you have a safe and rewarding experience. Plus, your guide will often provide all the equipment you need for the adventure.

I was a bit upset the night before the climb to find my guide was I'll and asked another guide to take his place. His father Renato Bernard was excellent and I had a wonderful climb and day. Fantastic!
Megan
Etienne was a fantastic guide. Very friendly, knowledgeable and helpful. We did a one day beginner level trip on the via ferrata. Etienne extremely knowledgeable of the history, geography, and culture of the area. I would highly recommend Etienne for anyone from novice beginners to advanced experts.

We had a wonderful trip with Michal. He met with us the evening before to go over the plan for the via Ferrata and answered all our questions. He took some wonderful photos of the trip and was so patient with our children. We felt completely safe the whole time and highly recommend the trip!
Helen
Brilliant day of adventure. Blaz is an excellent guide, we felt really safe the whole time. Plus he was full of knowledge about the local area. I would recommend him to anyone, especially if you have kids.
Mike
Blaz is the perfect guide. He kept us safe and made us feel comfortable on 4 very different via ferratas. He allowed us to climb at the limit we were comfortable with. His knowledge of history and landmarks was amazing. We enjoyed his company so much that he is the only guide I would consider on a return visit. Thanks Blaz for two great days of climbing!
