In 1843 the first via ferrata built for tourism was created on the Dachstein in Austria. By using iron pins and rungs, along with a so-called “lifeline”, difficult climbing passages could be protected continuously and made rather more accessible to non-climbers.
But the history of via ferratas goes back much further:
Ladders and wooden constructions resembling via ferratas have been known in the Alps for centuries and mostly served as working routes to open up alpine pastures and hard-to-reach areas, as well as for forestry. The modern via ferrata era begins with the construction of the First World War routes built in South Tyrol and the Dolomites. Today these are increasingly climbed for tourism and enjoy great popularity as an entry into the climbing world for people of all ages.
Our via ferrata adventures are planned by us carefully and full of adventure, so that we can enjoy an unforgettable experience full of breathtaking views, movement and fun on the rock. Some of the cantons where we run our tours are: Ticino, Uri, Bern, Obwalden and many more.

Some experience is an advantage. It can also be taught on site.
Generally fit for walking times of up to 7 hours
From the meeting point we walk up to the via ferrata we have chosen for the day. The approach runs through alpine surroundings and, depending on the route, can take up to two hours.
On site we receive an introduction to (or a refresher on) the protection and climbing techniques, combined with plenty of movement, sunshine and fun!
Depending on the number of participants we choose the right via ferrata so that by the end of the day everyone is comfortably able to climb via ferratas independently.
Halfway up we enjoy a restoring snack before continuing our route. Depending on the via ferrata chosen, the ascent can take up to 5 hours. Once at the top it is time to enjoy the landscape and the view, along with the snacks and drinks we provide.
To finish, we share our impressions of the experience. See you soon on another adventure!
Note: technical equipment can be hired — see the hire prices in the tab below.
This tour is designed for beginners and advanced climbers alike. It is aimed at everyone who wants to learn via ferrata climbing from scratch or to refine their existing technique under professional instruction. The aim of the day is that afterwards you are able to climb via ferratas independently.
In classic climbing you move directly on the rock and are belayed by a partner with a rope. A via ferrata (German Klettersteig) is permanently equipped with iron pins, ladders and a continuous steel cable (the so-called “lifeline”). You protect yourself on this steel cable using your via ferrata set. This makes the vertical world of the rock safely accessible to non-climbers too.
A via ferrata (also called Klettersteig in German) works like an artificially protected route through the rock. The line is equipped throughout with a steel cable firmly anchored into the mountain, as well as with iron pins, ladders and rungs. These aids make steep walls accessible to non-climbers as well. The steel cable serves you both as a handhold and as your life insurance.
