* The simplest one. An ideal choice for families with children or for children's groups. From 6 years old. Via Ferrata means "iron trail" in Italian. The modern Ferrata is a rock route equipped with a stationary steel cable. Metal step brackets are installed in difficult places. Via Ferrata makes rock climbing fast and accessible — it's an interesting and fairly safe way to get to places that only experienced climbers could visit before. What is via ferrata for the average outdoor enthusiast? This activity combines safe rock climbing with spectacular views, live communication and encouraging jokes in the fresh mountain air, picturesque cliffs and deep gorges. Remember that, first of all, via Ferrata is a fun physical challenge without any risk to your life, even though you have to be on the very edge of a cliff. The via ferrata elements are regularly checked by professionals and replaced with new ones as needed. And your personal safety equipment is subject to mandatory certification before being put into production and sale. This is one of the best country sports to do if you are looking for something a little different and a little more invigorating than a standard walk through low hills, but not as technical and challenging as sport climbing.
