Via Ferrata Děčín is also suitable for children. According to our experience, we recommend a body height of at least 130 cm. The weight limit is determined by the technical parameters of the ferrata sets, which are designed from 40 kg.

Our experienced guides will take care of securing children and persons under 40 kg.

What is Via Ferrata?

The name Via Ferrata comes from the Italian language and translates as "the secure way". It is a secured route through difficult mountain terrain, equipped with belay ropes, handrails and footrails and other aids so that even an inexperienced climber can climb it. These routes can vary in difficulty and are marked in our country according to the Austrian model (A - the easiest, after E - the most difficult). There are dozens of these routes all over Europe. Austria and Italy boast the largest number thanks to the magnificent Alps.

The Shepherd's Wall in Děčín is the longest ferrata in the Czech Republic and also offers the most ways to climb the wall. It is also the only ferrata located in the city centre, which is not quite common even in Europe.
