“We did the via ferrata, which was fun for our party which ranged from beginner to intermediate climbing experience.”

From the reviews

We did the Northern Utah Ogden Via Ferrata. Our favorite part of the trip were the guides, Chris and Payton, were phenomenal. This was our first Via Ferrata. This adventure was to celebrate my sister's 50th birthday.

★★★★★ — Nia, Feb 2022

Our trip on the via Ferrata in Ogden (North Utah) was fantastic! My group of 4 had mixed climbing experience and we went up route two which was worth it! The views were gorgeous and it was a very fun to share the experience of climbing with my partner who has only climbed indoors. She loved it!

Had a great time on the mountains, it was a good experience, the instructor explained everything calmly, showed and told us we were on the north via furrata that is near Ogden! Calm climb suitable for beginners

★★★★★ — Coach, Jul 2025

This was an awesome experience! I am 70 and have done 4 other via ferrata in the past few years (my first was at 63). With encouragement and guidance from guide Jared, we selected route 2, which is tougher than 1 and easier than 3.
