CANCELED - Via Ferrata Diavolo in Andermatt 

Have you ever wanted to climb a vertical rock face using iron steps, steel cables, and hanging bridges? Then it’s time to face the Via Ferrata Diavolo (“Devil’s Climb”) – a spectacular alpine adventure carved into the granite walls above the iconic Schöllenen Gorge near Andermatt.

The Diavolo Via Ferrata starts just a short walk from Andermatt and takes you directly into the towering granite cliffs.This via ferrata is as thrilling as it is beautiful, taking you above rushing mountain rivers, along sheer cliffs, and through a high alpine environment that feels straight out of a movie. It’s secured all the way, but still requires courage, concentration, and stamina!

Don’t worry, we’ll take plenty of breaks for photos, snacks, and to enjoy the view !

In case of rain, we will skip the via ferrata and do a nice hike near Andermatt instead. We will inform you a few days before.
