Safely on the steel cable with guide Christoph

Whether it’s your very first time on a via ferrata or you already have a few routes behind you – with Christoph as your guide you are well supported technically, physically and mentally.

He makes sure that:

• the difficulty and length of the route match your abilities

• you learn or refine the use of via ferrata set, carabiners and steel cable

• you pace yourself well and take breaks before it gets too tough

• you feel safe and well guided, even in more exposed sections

Before each tour you’ll have a thorough briefing at almlust: experience, fitness, wishes, possible fear of heights – everything can be discussed. From this, Christoph builds the perfect plan for your day on the rock.
