Trip Recommender
Join us for an action-packed day with the Raft + Via Ferrata package adventure in Idaho Springs! You will head out on the morning Gold Rush Rafting trip, then follow that up with the genuinely unique assisted rock climbing and mountaineering adventure known only as The Iron Way! The Via Ferrata is a physically demanding activity that includes a short hike, traversing, mountaineering, rappelling, ziplining, various cable bridges, and more. We recommend that those interested in the Via Ferrata tour are physically active. This adventure requires upper body strength, balance, and endurance. Please bring a water bottle that can be clipped to your harness with a carabiner.
