Via Ferrata Senhora de Penha

Climbing the Via Ferrata Senhora de Penha (Grade B) is an excellent and accessible adventure, perfect for those new to via ferratas or families looking for an exciting outdoor experience. Located near the stunning Penha Sanctuary, this route offers a unique blend of hiking and protected climbing.

As a Grade B route, it's considered easy to moderately difficult. You'll traverse rocky sections aided by fixed steel cables, occasional metal rungs, and perhaps short ladders or bridges.

Standard via ferrata equipment – harness, lanyards, and helmet – is essential for safety.

Participants can expect breathtaking panoramic views of the surrounding landscape, especially from higher points. It's a rewarding activity that combines physical activity with spectacular natural beauty, offering a memorable and safe return to solid ground after a truly enjoyable ascent.
