    what is the meaning of "solo climb" in context of via ferrata? Withouth protection?

    • @ZenHikingSwitzerland
      @ZenHikingSwitzerland  3 роки тому +805

      Hi, I feel some people are a bit confused about the term "solo" in reference to climbing.
      Very simply put:
      "Free Solo" = no ropes, no protection
      "Free Climb" = ropes, no additional climbing aiders
      "Solo Climb" = alone, ropes and gear are allowed

I had massive fear of heights when i first went around 8 years ago. After the first two days of hiking (not even ferrata) I learned what height means and how it feels and how normal it is. The next time I went I had no fear anymore. Just try it out! You will surely love the freedom you can not feel anywhere else.

      It's not easy to climb those mountains with some heavy equipment like a rotary hammer drill and an engine generator, to drill all those holes, to fix rungs and huge ladders, while hanging over the void. Plus, they thoroughly check the fixtures on a regular basis, to make sure that it stays safe over time.

However, it's also very inspiring and helps me see why it's worth to keep on fighting in my recovery. I will keep trying. Just the magnificence of the Alps.

    I’ve been watching more climbing vids here because, thanks algorithm, but I digress. I could never, and would never try any type of climbing. But here at 1:59 I said to myself, I could MAYBE see myself doing something outfitted with ladders like this. Thought about it while continuing to watch. Then 2:19 happened and I shot my previous statement down immediately. Those few seconds of him walking, I could feel myself, as in a dream, just fall right off. But kudos to all who do this. Intriguing for sure.
    As for those who installed those ladders and rungs everywhere…that is absolutely wonderful. I’ve always wondered how one gets rebar rungs like in the video to stay secure. Is there epoxy involved? I assume a hole needs drilled out first. Can you imagine trekking everything needed for this? Power tools, bits and materials. I’d love to know how they did it and how long it took.

    Wow, this looks really fun and to do. Maybe I'll give it a shot it in 10 odd years, but I'm super afraid of heights and still need to get over that fear. Greetings from Austria 😊

    Amazing! I wish I didn't have a fear of heights so I could do some hikes I fear in the U. S.

    Excellent video showing in details your route...a stupid question: who is placing these ropes and steel bases in order this route to be accomplisable?

      Some very ballsy people established the route in 1998, and since then revise the cables annually before opening up in spring. The work is done by rock climbers as far as I know.

      Within the already quite ballsey climbing/mountaineering community, there's an even ballsier sub group of often unsung legends that put up first ascents, clean and equip new lines, maintain them and write the guide books. Its a small neiche of people, all super committed to their passion

    Nice drone shots! The climb must have been heavy on the legs with all those ladders. Doing it solo takes some serious mental strength to keep you going. You can't just exit when you don't feel like it anymore. You have to finish the route. Same goes for the long hike back. It's an endurance.
