Climbing Vía Ferrata Igualeja (grade D) is a thrilling experience that demands a decent level of fitness and some prior via ferrata experience. The route is known for its sustained vertical sections and exposed traverses. Prepare for significant arm fatigue as you'll be pulling your weight a lot, especially on the overhangs. Proper technique is crucial - using your legs to push up and conserve arm strength is essential. The views from the route are spectacular, offering panoramic vistas of the surrounding Andalusian landscape. Make sure to bring plenty of water and snacks, as the climb can take several hours. Inspect all the fixed hardware before clipping in, and always maintain two points of contact with the via ferrata cable. A helmet, harness, via ferrata lanyard, and sturdy climbing shoes are mandatory. If you're new to grade D via ferratas, consider hiring a local guide for extra safety and guidance.
