Via ferrata combines the best of hiking, mountaineering and climbing but without the need to be an expert mountaineer.

VIA FERRATA – CLIMBING DESCRIPTION
The via ferrata is an sport activity that takes you up mountains and cliffs using cables and grips attached to the rock, on which you hang on using harnesses and karabiners to avoid falling. The routes are previously arranged and equipped with staples, cables, Himalayan bridges, Tibetan bridges and Tyrolean traverses.
It is suitable for groups of 4 to 10 people approx. and can be easily practiced by young people from 14 years old onwards. In accordance with this last parameter and the physical condition of each person, we will recommend a type of via ferrata.
A specialized instructor will be with you all the way, helping you during the whole activity. We will also provide you with the equipment needed.
The Via Ferrata in the Sierra de Gracia, Archidona excursion lasts 3-4 hours. It is considered MEDIUM-LOW difficulty level. It includes a Tibetan Bridge of 25-30 meters with a slope of 100 meters.
ABOUT VIA FERRATA
Today, the via ferrata is seen as a good step between hiking and technical mountain activities, as it allows you to become familiar with climbing and mountaineering materials, and the sensation of ascending a wall. It is an initiation to the technical aspects in order to correctly assimilate concepts such as: correct planning and risk management, respect for the environment and the correct use of the material provided .
There are different levels depending on the difficulty degree, and although it is not complicated, it requires strength and technique. If you already have knowledge in some mountain techniques such as rappelling or climbing, it will be easier for you to practice this sport.
