Mountain Trip Does It Best - This was my third trip with Mountain Trip and my second on the Telluride Via Ferrata. As always, a fantastic day! Mountain Trip gets out early to beat the heat and the crowd. Chris led the way and provided great conversation, fun insight on the trail and area, took amazing pictures, and kept us very safe. I am hooked on trying different via ferratas and Telluride is still number one in my book!

Incredible Experience - Absolutely incredible experience on the Via Ferrata in Telluride! The views were nothing short of breathtaking, with stunning panoramas of the surrounding mountains that made every step feel magical. Our guide, Ashley, was fantastic—her coaching and encouragement made us feel safe and confident throughout the climb. She expertly navigated us through the route, sharing her knowledge and passion for the area, which added so much to the adventure.
This trip is truly worth it for anyone seeking a thrilling outdoor experience paired with spectacular scenery. If you're in Telluride, don’t miss out on this! Thank you, Ashley, for an unforgettable day!

Great views and terrifying exposure - We (three generations) completed this hike with no real issues other than coping with our fear. Some groups must hike up a 1.5 mile switchback to the start point, but we were lucky enough to get a ride. Once on the via ferrata, it's a narrow trail with a steep and long drop off. I'm surprised more sections aren't cabled. If you're accustomed to hiking in the mountains, you won't have any problems with this section. For beginners, it's a good section to ease into the experience. Once you start clipping in, it gets scary. There's often very little to put your feet on while the drop is always sheer and long. When you get to the 'Main Event', you traverse a sheer rock face using metal rungs for your hands and feet. These are not optimally placed. Sometimes, the feet rungs are far apart and the hand rungs are too low. There's only one section that requires moderate upper body strength. Our guide (Ashley) was awesome. She demonstrated the best foot/hand holds and techniques calmly and expertly. You might want to wear thin grippy gloves and long pants on this hike. You'll spend a lot of time hanging on to rungs, cables, and rocks and there are a few places where you have to get on your knees or scoot on your rear. Compared to the Estes Park via ferrata, this one is considerably longer with much less vertical. We all had a blast. Ashley took some amazing pictures for us too. I highly recommend this via ferrata trip if you can deal with the exposure.

Unbelievable Experience! - This was an amazing trip! Kat was our guide and was just terrific! Kat was so encouraging to the child in our group and was focused on making sure we all had a wonderful time. This was an unbelievable experience and I would highly recommend it to anyone interested in seeing Telluride from a new perspective!

Breathtaking hike in Telluride! - Breathtaking via ferrata overlooking stunningly beautiful Telluride! The hike is not physically difficult but the exposure high up on the cliff face makes this hike mentally challenging (in a good way!). Our guides Carly and Marcus were superb at making us all comfortable and offering tips and suggestions along the way to ensure a fun and safe adventure.

Great company, would definitely book with them again - Our guide was amazing. I went with my Dad and our guide did an excellent job helping my Dad with the more difficult parts of the via ferrata. The guide was also so friendly, easy to talk to, knowledgeable, and very good at reassuring us when we got nervous!

Colorado Rocky Mountain High - Off road in Telluride - I have been going to Telluride, CO annually for skiing along with a summer trip now and then. This past September 2023 I made my first visit there on a fall leaf viewing road trip. While staying over a couple of days in Telluride we took an off road jeep excursion up to Imogene Pass with Telluride OffRoad. Adventures. I can't believe I had never done this before. All I can say is it is a must do experience, and Herb, our guide and company owner, was outstanding not only as a driver, but also full of local history and information. I would do this again in a heartbeat!
