Course of events
Meet your instructor at the activity base for this Via Ferrata excursion in Picos de Europa National Park.

Suited to anyone with a head for heights, this activity starts off with a quick safety briefing and a few practical tips before you clip into the safety line and start climbing.
Following your guide on a route that traverses up to 700m across the rock face, no previous climbing experience is necessary – using iron pegs, handy ladders, and guidelines to help you cross the gorge – a huge footbridge that’s suspended over a 100m void!
