Fantastic via ferrata on the ridge of the hill behind Omis
We had a great morning out on this via ferrata which offered spectacular views of Omis and the surrounding area. I would recommend this as a good introduction to via ferrata - it's not too difficult but a good head for heights helps. We did this as a family trip with our teenage daughters (16 and 19).
We went for the self guided option and met the instructor at the bottom, who gave good instructions on the route and how to use the equipment. We took about 2 hours to get up and 1 hour to walk down.
The only thing I would have done differently would be to carry more water - we went on a very hot day!

Amazing trip with cool pictures!
This was an amazing trip! We’ve done a few via ferratas before, but the views here were absolutely unique. It was easy to find our way even without a guide.
We also booked the drone photos, and they were definitely worth it. It was so much fun to be able to show everyone how incredible it was up there—especially our parents, who were watching from the ground! 🤣
At the top, we finally got to visit the fortress we had been looking at from the city all week. They were even selling cold Coca-Cola, which tasted amazing after the sweaty climb.
The hike back down was steep and slippery—almost more challenging than the climb itself! But as long as you took your time, it was completely manageable.
Overall, this was a fantastic experience, and we would definitely recommend it!

Great view of Omis and overall good Ferrata experience
Everything was excellent . The guide was very helpful. He suggested to take two big bottles of water and helped carry it since we forgot the backpack.
We are still looking for the drone pictures, but the drone was above all the time.

Amazing!
Such an amazing and adventurous experience for us. Ivan gave great instructions on our via Ferrata like up the steep mountain. The views were incredible and overall a nice time for us.
Make sure your shoes have good rubber grip especially for both going up and the hike back down!

This was SOLO without a guide!
Not sure if I was supposed to be guided to the top, but I was given the equipment and instructions and left to climb alone, as there was no one else on the tour that day.
I could have given up, but my entire summer trip was organized around this via ferrata, so I did the craziest thing and went solo on my first via ferrata ever, without a guide!
The via ferrata itself is amazing, and I recommend it. However, I went through unnecessary stress deciding whether to continue alone after being told on the spot that this was the plan.

Great experience
Absolutely loved our via ferrata experience today! Ivan was really friendly, helpful, and made us feel comfortable from the start.
The route we were shown was easy to follow and very straightforward, even for complete beginners like us. None of us had ever done a via ferrata before, and some of us are terrified of heights, but we all absolutely loved it and thought it was an amazing experience.
Highly recommend to anyone wanting to try something adventurous!

Nice view
Its a great experience with a beautiful view. But its not for people who aren't fit. And its solo so you don't have a guide.

Awesome
This is an amazing experience and I’d recommend to anyone who has a passion for hiking and climbing! Some parts require more upper body strength but it’s nothing too crazy! Lovely day 🫡❤️

Great experience
The listing is a little confusing as it suggests you will have a guide, however this was not the case. Equipment was given and explanation of where to start and the tracks to get back down. It was a great experience, you definitely need to have some level of fitness/stamina and not be scared of heights! Overall it was fantastic, just bear in mind you are booking to do this alone, not with a guide.

Awesome views! Great fun!
Perfect first time via ferrata for a couple who had never done one before. We picked up our equipment at the base of the mountain, got a little instruction from the operator, and we were off on our own. We went at 4pm so we were at the top top watch the sun go down a bit and then start the hike down before it got too dark. The views are awesome and we had a sense of accomplishment for a 55 year old woman and 59 year old man doing it. Yay us!
