The best beginner rock climbing experience!
Find a climbing experience like no other on the Red River Gorge’s only Via Ferrata! This climbing path spans ¾ of a mile of rugged sandstone cliff line, equipped with cables to clip into, and iron hand- and foot-rungs just where you need them to hold onto and step on.
