Via ferrata in Mürren + optional Mürren city walk and look around
Details
A via ferrata is a protected, fixed-cable climbing route that allows people to traverse steep or difficult rocky terrain safely. These routes incorporate steel cables, rungs, ladders, and bridges, which serve as both climbing aids and continuous anchors for a special via ferrata safety set to clip into, blending the experience of hiking and rock climbing.
Zurich Together is organising for the third time a Via Ferrata meet-up event.
We plan to do the Via Ferrata Mürren, a K3 ideal for beginners.
This via ferrata features one short section (15m in length) of extreme exposure, where you are attached to a cliff face roughly 600 meters (2000 feet) off of the ground. This can be challenging, even if you do not have a fear of heights.
Weather can cancel the event a few days before if weather is not perfect for execution!
