Very badly managed, one instructor for a group of 12. No consideration of abilities, ages, experience. And cut short due to one participant being able to continue. Operator refused to refund or offer alternative.

I went with my brothers and we really enjoyed the experience. It wasn’t too challenging and our guide Kia was very friendly. I would happily do this again, with the only change being on a less hot day, as we only got water at the summit. Views were amazing!
Excellent day out on the via ferrata extreme!

Absolutely loved this experience. Well out of my comfort zone. Woody was really encouraging & also told us some of the history of the slate mine. The tasks pushed us & the views from the top are well worth the effort. Loved the fact the group was just myself & partner, so could go at our own pace. Would definitely recommend.
100% recommend

I cannot recommend this experience enough! It was so lovely for it to be just me and my partner so we were going at our own pace and didn’t have anybody either slowing us down or waiting for us. The views are stunning and is so fun to complete. Woody our guide was phenomenal and we really enjoyed our time!
