Adventure Peaks - Mountaineering Courses

Via Ferrata

Our Via Ferrata courses are based in the Italian Dolomites and are ideal for those with a good head for heights.Via Ferrata provides a fantastic and exciting way of making a journey through the mountains and across exposed big rock wall by means of walkways protected by steel handrails,wire ropes and ladders.

DOLOMITES VIA FERRATA

The breathtaking pinnacles of the Dolomites are well known to climbers around the world. Dating back to the First World War, the Italians had to fix iron ladders and wire cables to the rock to enable them to access mountain top military positions. Today these ‘Iron Ways’ have been turned into exciting routes for the keen scrambler to travel safely through the mountains in situations that would normally be the domain of the expert climber.

The course is based from our excellent, cosy hotel in Cortina.   Although no climbing experience is required, a high level of fitness and sense of adventure is essential.

INCLUSIONS: 6 days instruction, 6 nights B&B hotel accommodation in Cortina, 6 breakfasts.

EQUIPMENT:   Specialist equipment (helmet, harness and lanyards) can be hired.

THE BOCCHETTE WAY

Based in the Brenta Dolomites, the course involves a hut to hut traverse of the main Brenta group taking you through some of the most spectacular rock scenery in this region. The Bocchette Way is a classic, and as famous as the ‘Haute Route’ in the Alps.

It is a hut based journey suitable for those who have had some previous experience of Via Ferrata or UK grade 3 scrambling.

INCLUSIONS: 6 days instruction, 2 nights
hotels, 5 nights in Alpine Rifugio, 7 breakfasts,
