As a Canadian Signature Experience, Norquay's Via Ferrata is a must-do activity when visiting Banff National Park. Our highly qualified ACMG-certified guides will lead you up the cliffs of Mt Norquay that hang above the Bow Valley, overlooking the town of Banff.
Steel handholds, ladders, and footsteps as well as a steel safety cable are secured to the rock wall providing assistance and safety. Climbers are safely secured to the safety cable while climbing.
The Explorer Route is a 2.5-hour introduction to Via Ferrata and a great way to test out this adrenaline-packed alpine activity. Climb pitches, and cross the course’s picturesque suspension bridge.
Although no prior climbing experience is necessary, guests should be fit enough to climb a ladder.
CHECK IN 30 MINUTES PRIOR TO TOUR TIME Meet at Norquay's North American Lodge, 6km (3.7 miles) from Banff, via Mt Norquay Road. When arriving, go past the first two parking lots. Park in the lot posted as 'P3', follow the short walking path up to the Lodge. Free shuttle available from central Banff.
This activity ends back at the meeting point.
