Frequently Asked Questions

What is Via Ferrata?

A Via Ferrata is a type of mountain climbing that goes through a path that has a permanently installed safety system, giving people without any climbing experience, and using minimal equipment the opportunity to climb through a spectacular mountain scenery. Via Ferrata is the name used to describe the paths found high in the Alps, where fixed cables are used for protection and iron ladders are used to climb difficult sections (Another name is Klettersteig). Originally, ferrata routes were built in the Italian Dolomites to allow the movement of troops during World War I. When the war ended, these routes were passed on to be used by mountain guides to take customers to the base of the mountains.

Who can climb Via Ferrata?

Anyone who is in good health and has a good physical condition is able to climb the via ferrata. The minimum age to climb the Sacred Valley via ferrata is 8 years old. We reserve the right to admission to determine whether people are suitable for the via ferrata or not. Without exception, the via ferrata climbers must always be accompanied by a guide.

What kind of equipment is used?

A full body harness, helmet, gloves and a via ferrata lanyard, (double locking carabineers with strength dissipator especially designed for via ferrata climbing).

What should I bring?

Wear light clothing and comfortable shoes (tennis shoes, light hiking boots, etc.. No sandals). Keep in mind that as you go upper the weather will get colder and windier, you can take extra clothes in a small backpack. Bring at least 2 L of water
