4-day via ferrata course Lake Garda, Trentino
Learning by doing on the best all-season via ferratas
In Trentino the via ferratas are called Viae Ferratae and this is not the only difference:
In no other Alpine region are there so many "iron routes" and nowhere do they have such resonant names as "Via Ferrata Che Guevara" or "Via Ferrata Signora delle Acque". The choice is considerable and there is a suitable route for every taste and every requirement, from the short sport via ferrata close to the valley to the 1,000 m route.
Your mountain guide will accompany you on the fantastic routes and show you the tricks of the pros when it comes to safety techniques and tactics on the via ferrata. Thanks to annual training courses, Vivalpin mountain guides are always up to date, as are the modern Edelrid via ferrata sets, harnesses and helmets, which you can try out and test to your heart's content. Your via ferrata course is sure to be an unforgettable experience!

"Via ferratas on Lake Garda, that's pure vacation. The sun is usually shining, the approaches are short and there are plenty of via ferratas of all levels of difficulty and varying lengths. The via ferrata week is also a good tip for preparing for the summer season."
