The word Via Ferrata is Italian and means “Iron Road.” The Oxford Dictionary defines it as “A mountain route equipped with fixed ladders, cables, and bridges in order to be accessible to climbers and walkers.” The Italians created the first Via Ferrata so they were able to reach the top of mountains in harsh conditions that could not simply be climbed.
