Via Ferrata Trogfjell

The term Via Ferrata originates from Italian and means iron path. It is a fixed climbing route with iron sprouts that are attached to the rock. You are secured by a steel cable with a special via ferrata set.

The climb in Åmli consists of 300 of these iron sprouts and is 200m tall with a climbing distance of 240m.

Previous climbing knowledge is not required to take park in the tour. Normal fitness will be sufficient, but you should not be scared of heights. With previous experience the route can also be climbed without guide.
