Lord of the Rungs Climb with Wildwire - Level 2
Highlights & inclusions
What you can expect
Join Wildwire Wanaka for a uniquely New Zealand waterfall via ferrata experience. Via ferrata is climbing via a series of iron rungs, steel cables and wire bridges which creates an accessible route on otherwise steep rock walls.
On this adventurous climb builds on the skills learnt on the lower sections of the waterfall and heads into the steeper upper walls. You will learn safety skills and then begin your climb up our spectacular waterfall via ferrata to finish at the base of a plunging 60m waterfall. Throughout this climb, you will cross 6 suspension bridges and climb 320 metres vertical alongside cascading waterfalls. You are rewarded with spectacular views of Lake Wanaka and Mount Aspiring.
Suitable for beginners. Good fitness required - must be able to climb a ladder & walk on hilly terrain for up to 4 hours. If this does not sound like your level, have a look at Level 1 - Easy Tour of Lower Section
