Via ferrata course for beginners

Join us at the beginner’s course of safe movement in via ferratas in Mojstrana, where we have two modern sports via ferratas and where we will learn safe usage, walking and climbing with via ferata systems, safe movement in difficult spots and we will test ourselves on via ferratas ascents. This will prepare you for an independent via ferratas journey.

Via ferrata courses are carried out in the mountaineering center Mojstrana, where we have two modern sports via ferratas. Aljaževa pot rated on B difficulty and “Pot Mojstranških veveric” rated on C D difficulty. Not far from the main two, in Mlačca, is a short learning via ferrata, assessed on B/C difficulty.

Group courses are held on weekends. At your request, we can also conduct a private via ferrata course during the week or in another mountaineering center or. via ferratas.

We run both one - day and two - day courses. Two - day course includes one more via ferrata trip on the second day, so the via ferrata experience is even more fulfilled.
