A first route

Short valley training routes, including the Kali children’s via ferrata, are the best introduction. A guide can check equipment and teach correct lanyard technique.

Choosing difficulty

A letter grade does not capture approach length, altitude, weather or exposure. Read the full description, profile and escape options.

Equipment and conditions

Use a helmet, harness and certified via-ferrata set. Avoid metalwork during storms, after heavy rain or in ice; high-alpine routes require additional experience.
