In the area around the Garda Lake you can find about ten “vie ferrate” which are accessible within a few minutes by car from the center. The lenghts vary from 200 up to 1200m. While some are for beginners and children others are very difficult. One thing all of them have in common: the possible access throughout the whole year and the wonderful panorama.

Alpine and panoramic route for all who enjoy excursions and would like to start with “vie ferrate”.
Via ferrata di Castel Drena

This course is destined for persons who love trekking or mountain walks, and for whom who would like to try themselves in the vertical world in complete safety. In the past, the practice of approach for the beginners on the walls was long and difficult: it began with hiking on mountain paths, continuing with easy via ferrata and finally climbing on pure rock. Nowadays the modern climbing crags and also the via ferratas which are near to the touristical centers, allow the performance of a different didactics which are less time consuming and involve less risk. In our first lessons of the courses we are teaching rock climbing techniques which is the base of each mountain activity. Climbing suitable crags with the " top rope" system allows to learn the correct foot techniques on the rock and basic rope-manoeuvres (in safety) which are must for the continuation of via ferrata activity. This is the program of our via ferrata course:
