There are only a couple dozen different via ferrata routes across North America, and we’re lucky to have two of them in the beautiful San Juan Mountains. For those who have enjoyed the Telluride Via Ferrata, you’ll find the Ouray Via Ferrata to be a complimentary but quite different adventure. The Ouray Via Ferrata follows the course of the Uncompahgre River through a deep gorge. The Ouray route is entirely cabled, and requires lots of climbing up and down rungs, with elements built into the experience such as wire bridges and ladders. The Ouray Via Ferrata can be technical and physically challenging. The route, in length, travels only approximately 0.8 miles along the canyon wall, but typically takes between 3-4 hours to complete. Mountain Trip guide(s) will lead us along the way. Appropriate footwear is required: hiking boots, trail runners or approach shoes. Wear comfortable trekking shoes or boots and clothing, a light warm layer, and a rain shell. Bring a small backpack with a water bottle, snacks and sunscreen. Mountain Trip will provide all helmets, harnesses, and Via Ferrata lanyards. Participants must fit the Black Diamond Momentum Harness, which fits up to a 41-inch waist. For lunch and hot springs afterwards, bring a bathing suit and a change of clothes. Mountain Trip guides have a variety of ways to provide additional security to any climbers wishing it. Fee of $125 charged at Registration. Additional Gratuity - 20% of the cost of the trip ($38) is recommended at time of trip.
