What should I bring?

Avoid bringing bags, backpacks, or cameras—narrow sections of the course make it difficult to carry extra items, and dropped gear can't be retrieved. If you bring a cell phone, it must be securely tethered and not interfere with safety equipment. Water bottles are allowed. All safety gear is provided.

Is prior climbing experience necessary?

No. The tour is designed for beginners and includes instruction and safety gear.

How high is the climb?

The via ferrata route involves climbing metal rungs along canyon walls, reaching heights up to 200 feet. While the exposure adds excitement, you're always clipped into a secure safety system, and guides are there to support you throughout the ascent.

How narrow is the slot canyon?

If you’re concerned about getting stuck, there are two boards (representing the rock walls) at the Antelope Ridge Adventure Park head quarters to give you an idea of how narrow the slot canyon will be. Passages are as narrow as 12 inches; If you fear of confined spaces, this may not be suitable for you.

Are there any health restrictions?
