"My friends and I went in mid-October for the via ferrata and LOVED the experience. The via ferrata was just challenging enough to incite excitement and a bit of fear, but not so challenging that we were worn out. The guides (Tony and another guy) were super nice and never rushed us. Our group of a..."bout 14 took three hours to complete the via ferrata, and along the way, had plenty of opportunities to rest and take pictures. I would definitely recommend going in the fall because the view from above is breathtaking!
We stayed at one of the guest rooms for two nights. It feels like a motel room with all the amenities. If you do not want to camp or if it's too cold to camp, that is the way to go. The walls were a little thin so we could hear our neighbors. During our stay, a family that's staying in the yellow house across from the building with the guest rooms were drunk and yelling loudly at each other at 2 a.m. A woman stormed out yelling divorce...To other travelers, simmer dow...

"Excellent trip and climb! My daughter and I did the Via Ferratta and had an excellent adventure. Camped at the tent site, very clean and almost flat, give or take.

She LOVED the bridge. I recommend this trip as a fun filled adventure!

I'm so glad we went...." The rocks themselves are an amazing geological feature that should be one of the wonders of the world. The welcome facility is new, clean, and comfortable. If you don't bring your own supples, they have them for sale there. (The actual equipment needed for the climb is provided.) Our group contained me (51 year old, 5' 2" female), my boyfriend (57 years old) and my boyfriend's son (16 years old, tall, lanky and very fit). Basically, you are linked into a cable system at all times and climbing on iron rungs through an extreme rock course. The course was challenging and a blast for all of us. (And yes, this WILL impress and challenge your teenager too.) Our guide, Nicole, was helpful,...
