The Via Ferrata du Mont, located between Samoens and Sixt, is family-friendly and accessible for adults and children from 12 years of age. No experience is necessary, but participants must be at least 140cm tall in order to be able to reach certain elements and complete the itinerary safely.  

Via Ferrata is like “assisted” rock climbing and allows novice climbers to scale to immense heights in total safety. It’ll be sure to get your heart pumping!

Using fixed ladders, cables and rope bridges, you’ll be guided up and along a set route by your Guide, who’ll help manage your fears and build confidence along the way.  ZigZag Guides recommend this Via Ferrata route for beginners.

With helmets, harnesses and a cable always connecting you to the rocks, you’ll have the confidence and ability to reach terrain that would otherwise be left to experienced climbers. A fantastic challenge and great day out for the whole family.

Via Ferrata in Samoens / Sixt from 55€ per person.
