Overview

The Ferrata dei Bambini follows a sloping ledge, simple and without any particular difficulties, overlooking the fairytale Gover lake. It is ideal for those who are starting out, especially the little ones.  

Period: from May to September 

Programme

We start from Gressoney-Saint-Jean by the beautiful Gover Lake, where we check our gear and begin our approach along the lovely woodland path. After crossing a scree slope, we head up following the signs for the via ferrata. We continue to the base of the rock face, where we find the well-signed start of the Ferrata dei Bambini. The route unfolds along a long, gently sloping ledge that is both easy and offers wonderful scenic views. For our return, we follow the path that leads us back to the lovely little lake.

What to know before you set off

Mountaineering is by its very nature an adventurous activity. The Monte Rosa guides, all of whom are UIAGM certified, are dedicated to doing everything possible to minimise any hazards, but a element of risk is always present and should be embraced as part of the adventure before signing up for our activities.

The Monte Rosa Guides will always do their utmost to help you achieve your personal goals and ensure you have the best possible experience in nature. However, you must agree to trust their professional judgement whilst in the mountains and respect any decision they make, including turning back, should it be deemed necessary. Being well-prepared and maintaining a good level of physical fitness is essential to ensure a safe and enjoyable journey on all our excursions. If, due to fitness levels or any other reason, your guide feels you are not quite ready for your chosen activity, they will happily suggest alternative adventures beautifully suited to your current level of preparation.
