Calling all adventurers - take your vacation to new heights on this beginner guided via Ferrata tour in Andalsnes, Norway! In the company of an experienced instructor, you'll scale heights of up to 350 metres (1,148 feet) from ground level while being safely attached.

After you've met your guide at the Norwegian Mountaineering Centre, you'll be given your equipment, which includes a harness, a via Ferrata sling, and helmet. In addition, participants can choose to bring their own rubber/ garden gloves or purchase them for 55 NOK at the centre. Once you and your group have been given a safety and equipment briefing, you'll head off on a short walk (30 minutes) through the woods to the via Ferrata course.
