About this experience
Via Ferrata is like climbing a mountain, but in adventure mode and with great security,
you will use a technical material (helmet, harnesses, gloves and dissipators) especially for this adventure.
You will climb metal steps, enjoy a natural high-altitude route full of excitement with 3 zip lines (25, 35 and 10 meters), Tibetan and Monkey bridges, in a beautiful landscape in an agricultural village, which has incredible views of the mountains and the famous "Boquete de Zafarraya" which is a mountain pass in the Penibetic Mountain Range, constitutes the most important natural passage between the province of Malaga and the province of Granada.
Is a nice adventure to enjoy with couple, friends, family, this via ferrata is perfect for initiation too, as we can adapt it to different levels.
The Via Ferrata of Zafarraya has it ALL: it’s fun and exciting; has zip-line jumps and a nice dose of art in a breathtaking natural landscape.
*It is necessary not to have vertigo.
