Via Ferrata Hvadnik: Nature, Adrenaline and Safety Tips

Via Ferrata Hvadnik is a quite short but unforgettable adventure. It is tucked into a dramatic gorge near Gozd Martuljek in the Julian Alps. It’s accessible for beginners, since it is B/C difficulty. It is also exciting enough to make your heart race. It offers a perfect mix of adrenaline, nature and refreshing alpine air. I have done this via ferrata while doing a beginner’s course of safe movements in via ferratas with Kofler Šport. Our guide was very pleasant and helpful. Luckily for us, the group was very tiny, so we did the via ferrata in 2 hours. Before we started we had a brief explanation of course. And after we tried some more “tricks”. Basically, the whole course lasts around 5-6 hours.

I enjoyed Hvadnik and the course in general, thank you Kofler Šport!
