Mount Evans Via Ferrata Climbing Experience in Idaho Springs

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.

This trip was thrilling all around. Our guides, Xavier and Lilly, were both terrific. Their knowledge and leadership made the day special for everyone in our group. I can not wait to be back with AVA in the future!

This was a great introduction to many things to do outdoors in Colorado in the summer. It had some rock climbing-like experience, walking on wire suspension bridges, repelling, and zip lines. Xavier and Otter were fantastic guides and we all had a great time. I highly recommend AVA Via Ferrata Climbing to anyone that can.
