Conquer the Dragon’s Tale- The bucket list via Ferrata.
A via ferrata, meaning “iron path,” is a protected climbing route consisting of steel cables, rungs, ladders, and bridges fixed to a rock face, allowing you to traverse steep or exposed terrain with enhanced safety by clipping your via ferrata kit into the cable.
Even as a non climber, if you are over 16 and reasonably fit, we will guide you to climb the magnificent Beacon Buttress. A 3km uphill hike from the Sentinel car park gets you to the base of the vis Ferrata. You are harnessed and given full safety gear. It takes about 6 to 8 hours to climb South Africa’s highest via Ferrata, enjoy panoramic views and visit the view of the tallest waterfall in the world, the Tugela Falls. There is an escape route if you want to return and you have a choice of descent routes. Your guide is very knowledgeable and knows every ledge.
