Via ferrata course with children under 40 kg
The course is designed for both absolute beginners and advanced climbers. Throughout the course, the instructor provides both psychological and physical support.
What exactly the course includes:
- Additional safety: securing the person (child) with a rope if necessary.
- Equipment briefing: instructions on how to put on the via ferrata harness.
- Movement basics: instructions on how to move on via ferratas.
- Active climb: a via ferrata climb lasting approximately 4 hours with about 1–3 ascents (depending on your strength).
- Equipment included: rental of a via ferrata set with a brake included in the price, including a helmet.
- Interesting facts: information about the history and origins of via ferratas.
- Escort: presence of an instructor for the entire duration of the course.
Note regarding gloves: For hygiene reasons, climbing gloves are not available for rent. If you don’t have your own, we sell brand new professional gloves directly on-site (we have them in the van) starting from 500 CZK / pair.
Safety restrictions: good health is required for participation; all restrictions must be consulted. Climbing is not possible during
pregnancy. Weight under 42kg and weight over 110kg (including overweight) must be consulted.
Our priority is that you don’t have to carry any complicated technical gear. We will rent you all certified equipment directly on-site; just come in sportswear.
Safety on the rock is our absolute standard. Participation must be booked and confirmed in advance, and don’t be afraid to call even 5 minutes before the start 🙂
Equip yourself only with the following:
- Sportswear: sports clothing (knees preferably covered).
- Sturdy footwear: non-slip shoes (no sandals or flip-flops).
- Small backpack: a small backpack (with a waist or chest strap) for your things.
- Drink: something to drink (ideally 0.5L).
- Energy: a sweet snack bar, grape sugar.
The meeting point for all course participants is always 5 minutes before the lesson starts directly at Pastýřská stěna.

Practical Information
You can park in several places:
If you arrived by car and only plan on climbing, you will certainly appreciate the Pastýřská stěna Restaurant, where you can reward yourself properly.
If you arrived by bike, it's definitely worth visiting the Děčín Kocanda Restaurant, located directly on the Elbe Cycle Path just 5 minutes from the city center. Kocanda also boasts a large children's playground that no other nearby can compete with.
If you're planning a longer stay or are from far away, don't hesitate to book a room here, as Kocanda is a good starting point for many other trips.
