Guided Via Ferrata Experiences
For those seeking a blend of hiking and climbing, local mountain guides offer guided via ferrata excursions on various equipped routes around Courmayeur and its surrounding valleys. These 'iron paths' provide a safe yet thrilling way to ascend challenging rock faces using fixed steel cables, ladders, and suspension bridges. Routes vary significantly from beginner-friendly paths to more exposed and technically demanding ascents, requiring a good level of fitness and no fear of heights. Available from June to September. Guide fees typically start from €100-€150 per person for a half-day, including specialized equipment rental.
