Originally conceived as access routes for the military, via ferratas have evolved over the years into captivating adventure paths for outdoor enthusiasts. These itineraries provide a unique experience by combining the excitement of rock climbing with the safety of routes equipped with ladders, metal walkways, and fixed handrails.

The first via ferratas date back to the 19th century in the Italian and Austrian Alps, created to facilitate the movement of military troops during the First World War. Over the years, many of these routes have been adapted for civilian use, giving rise to an exciting form of vertical hiking.

Via ferratas offer an accessible way to approach rock climbing, allowing hikers of all levels to enjoy spectacular views and experience the adrenaline of verticality in complete safety.

In Trentino there are so many, from the simplest to the most demanding. However, we advise you to start gradually and to be accompanied by an expert mountain guide.

We suggest starting with the via ferrata “Barba di Fior”, in the splendid Val di Pejo, a few steps away from our Ursus Adventures Centre. This itinerary is ideal for learning rock handling for both adults and children.

A short approach, aerial and amusing passages (with a final abseil of 25 metres), make this via ferrata varied and suggestive. At the end of the excursion you will arrive at the famous fort of the First World War, the Forte Barba di Fior.
