Granite Via Ferrata Climbing Experience in Buena Vista

Overview
A Via Ferrata, which means “iron way” in Italian, is a method of mountaineering & rock climbing that’s been used in Europe for centuries. Via Ferrata courses use a combination of ladders, rungs, rails, cables and bridges to aid in moving across and up a cliff face. The Iron Way in Idaho Springs is an assisted rock climbing guided tour where guests clip into cables that run along the side of a cliff. They then move along a designated path of iron rungs and bridges to move across, and along the way they will be required to clip in and out of the cable to progress through the course. This is made possible through an advanced internal locking system in the carabiners. Each guest will have 2 carabiners connected to bungee-style lanyards on their harness. The internal locking system makes it impossible to clip out of both at the same time, insuring that climbers are connected to the cable of the course at all times.

Thanks to Luke and his crew for a great first time Via Ferrata experience. Three of us in the group, ages 48, 47 and 13. We all loved it and felt safe and secure the entire way. Lots of cool stuff included. Zip lining, rock climbing (with hand and foot holds, so no experience or technical skill needed) balance obstacles, and a rappel. Great bargain for a lot of different activities all wrapped into one. Staff allowed Go Pro video. Awesome! Have doubts or fear of heights? I say go for it. Very safe and secure.
