Via Ferrata

The words “via ferrata” come from Italian, meaning ‘iron way’. The Italian army first used via ferrata to move troops and equipment over difficult ground in the alps, now we do it for fun! Via ferrata involves you scrambling or climbing up rock faces. The routes you follow have steel rods and rails, steps and heavy-gauge wire cables embedded in the rock to assist and secure you. These routes allow the adventurous walker to cross over into the domain of the alpine climber. You clip yourself safely onto the fixed cable using a harnesses, and specialist equipment. It is best to do via ferratta with a qualified high mountain guide and we can easily book this for our guests. You need to have a head for heights and be over 10 years of age. There is a brilliant via ferrata route in Avoriaz that takes about 2 and a half hours and also 2 different routes near Morzine in the village of St Jean D’Aulps. That includes a red and a challenging black course.
