Kleine groep Banff Skyline Via Ferrata 5-uur durende tour





Beschrijving
Als een Canadese Signature Experience is Norquay's Via Ferrata een must-do activiteit bij een bezoek aan Banff National Park. Onze hooggekwalificeerde ACMG-gecertificeerde gidsen leiden je naar de kliffen van Mt Norquay die boven de Bow Valley hangen en uitkijken over de stad Banff. Stalen handgrepen, ladders en voetstappen, evenals een stalen veiligheidskabel, zijn aan de rotswand bevestigd voor assistentie en veiligheid. Klimmers worden veilig vastgemaakt aan de veiligheidskabel tijdens het klimmen. De Skyline Route is een 4,5 tot 5 uur durende Via Ferrata-tour met een opwindende hoge traverse op een steile rotswand en een "luchtige" 55m lange hangbrug. Je inspanning wordt ruimschoots beloond aan de top, met een prachtig panoramisch uitzicht waar de Rocky Mountains zich in alle richtingen uitstrekken. Hoewel er geen eerdere klimervaring nodig is, moeten gasten fit genoeg zijn om meerdere ladders te beklimmen en het comfortabel vinden om vier tot vijf uur te wandelen in bergachtig terrein.

Our guide, Alex, was amazing! He was knowledgeable, encouraging, patient (with this one who is afraid of heights) and fun! The views were amazing! Woolf highly recommend.
The views were beautiful and the experience was safe but exciting. Greg, our guide, was awesome. He made the entire experience fun and comfortable. He was a delight to be around. Kevin on the other hand, was a buzzkill he robbed us of some joy. Greg was as good as they come though.
Literally the coolest thing I've ever done. Not for those scared of heights. This is the next to longest and doesn't quite go all the way to the top of the mountain.
I expected this to be an adventurous tour and it met my expectations with that. The guide was great. His name is Greg and he was super helpful for the entire group. This was an absolute highlight for our trip to Banff.
We really enjoyed this experience! Our Guide was Zach, and he could not have been better. Great attitude, helpful, hints, and a wealth of local information. Russ, this was the perfect distance. A little longer than the two hour one, but not a full day experience. Just right.
We did the 5 hour Skyline tour which was worth every dollar. Kyle our guide was great and paced the whole day perfectly. He was incredibly focused on everyone’s safety but also managed to be fun, relaxed, reassuring and informative all the way round. The 5 hours flew by and despite mixed abilities in our group (I was the slowest going down) I would recommend this trip to anyone in reasonable shape. My wife is not always great with heights but Kyle talked her through the whole thing and she thoroughly enjoyed herself. Really friendly team on the mountain and in the station at the bottom. Great day out.
I don’t know what else to say except… this was by far the coolest thing I have ever done in my life. My wife and I did the Skyline route and I can’t describe how glad we are that we decided to splurge and do this! We were celebrating my wife’s 30th birthday. She wanted to do something challenging, but we hardly noticed we were working because of the incredible views, awesome guide (Brandon) and the route was just AMAZING! The ladder, the cable, the bridge, etc… it was something we’ll never forget.
We did the Skyline Via Ferrata with Juan and it was such a good time. Juan is super experienced (despite all the jokes otherwise) and really talks you through certain sections so that you’re comfortable. His knowledge of the local area and his terrible dad jokes made it a great day.
My wife, 3 teenage kids, and I had one of the most amazing travel experiences we ever had on the Ridgeline via Ferrata tour with our tour guide BEN. He showed us on a practice wall everything we needed to do well and be safe on our climb today. I am a big safety junkie while my wife is a big adrenaline junkie, and our experience climbing today made both off us happy. Well saw breathtaking views as we climbed the via Ferrata. Ben told us about the history of via Ferrata and how it’s a relatively new thing in North America, as compared to Europe where it was created. We are lucky to have this course here at Banf, and I would love to try a course in Europe now. The weather had a little bit of rain today but Ben our tour guide kept a close eye on the weather, and appeared ready for any situation. Ben was also super kind to my 3 kids talking to all of them, to encourage and support them throughout the entire climb. My teenagers had a great time as a result.
My partner and I had an amazing experience at the Via Ferrata. We did the Skyline tour with Alexis as our guide. We should have picked an easier Via Ferrata tour option, but Alexis was so professional, capable, and encouraging, we successfully finished the experience. I won't lie-- the Via Ferrata was hard. It was physically hard because we were hiking and climbing at altitude, and mentally hard because looking out 9000 feet was terrifying! But the views were one-in-a-million, and the feeling of accomplishment was intoxicating!
