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.

Our guides on the Via Ferrata Max and Simon were fantastic! Very entertaining and very knowledgeable. We were in good hands with them guiding us. It really pushed us out of our comfort zones in a safe way. Our guides even took our pictures and sent them to us after the experience. I would definitely recommend this if you have ever wanted to try rock climbing or a high ropes course.

My adult son and I experienced this Via Ferrata which was as fun but challenging as I expected, and more. Max and Goose were so helpful and patient with me, the oldest in our group at 71. Max and Goose made it amazing, so much fun, and so very EXHILARATING! Thanx, Guys!
