My partner and I had an amazing day! It was our first Via Ferrata and Antonio told us everything we should know to climb this track, and even more. He was very friendly and funny, we would definitely recommend to join Antonio on a guided Ferrata! The track itself was moderately demanding for us, we are both fit and did not experience any strength difficulties during the track. We felt safe all the time. The views were stunning!
