What should I wear?

It is important to dress in layers so that you can adjust your clothing as needed. You should also start with a warm base layer and add layers as you go. It is better to be overdressed than underdressed, as it is easier to cool down than to warm up. For the base layer, you should consider a wool or synthetic long sleeve top and bottoms; on top of that, a fleece or down jacket and finally, Gore-Tex or hardshell jacket and pants.

Thank you explore-share for a wonderful via feratta experience. We have been wanting to learn for a long time but don't have the facilities in Scotland. The guide Mitja was extremely helpful and knowledgeable, answering all my many questions and providing advice. On the day head to take another group but he quickly arranged another guide Borut, who was brilliant. We had a fantastic morning learning via ferrata at Hvadnik in the gorge. It gave us the confidence to later hire our own equipment and go out in Mojstrana. Altogether a five star + experience. Thank you.
