VIA FERRATA

Ouray Via Ferrata Downstream Route

This is THE route you came to climb!

The Downstream Via is Ouray’s original route and set the standard for via ferratas in Colorado. This route brings adventurers on a winding course through an stunning canyon in Ouray, Colorado.

You will travel on steep, rocky terrain, all the while connected to a series of steel cables and utilizing metal rungs and steps to climb the canyon walls.

Experience exciting technical sections including the Sky Climb and the Sky Bridge.

An AMGA Rock Guide will tailor the Ouray Via Ferrata trip to your group’s abilities and goals.
