The Via Ferrata Sokolov Put offers an exciting climb along exposed cliffs and breathtaking views.
Via Ferrata Sokolov Put is a secured climbing route that leads across exposed cliffs, suspension bridges, and dramatic canyon viewpoints.
Sokolov Put is known for its exposed cliff sections and two suspension bridges suspended high above the canyon. Unlike most via ferratas in the region, Sokolov Put combines technical climbing with long exposed sections that create a strong sense of progression and achievement.
Each segment of the route feels different, creating a clear sense of progress from the first steel cable to the final viewpoint.
This steel-secured route allows participants to move safely across steep and vertical rock sections without prior climbing experience. The route is suitable for both first-time via ferrata users and experienced climbers looking for a well-secured challenge. The ferrata is suitable for healthy adults with basic fitness who feel comfortable with exposed terrain.
The Sokolov Put via ferrata is approximately 350 meters long, with an altitude gain of 160 meters. The entire route is secured with steel cables, iron steps, and handholds that make it fully accessible even for those without technical climbing knowledge.
The two suspension bridges are the main highlight of the route, adding exposure and a strong sense of height above the canyon.
Along the way, you will enjoy:
• Towering vertical rock faces.
• Panoramic mountain views across the valley.
• Two suspension bridges connecting sheer cliffs.
• Final scenic ascent to the summit of Crvene Stijene.
(Estimated route length: ~350 m, altitude gain ~160 m.)
All climbs are supervised by certified guides using top-quality Petzl equipment (helmets, harnesses, via-ferrata lanyards with energy absorbers). Your guide demonstrates proper technique, monitors safety, and adjusts the pace to the group’s abilities.
No previous via-ferrata experience is required. Participants should have basic fitness and be comfortable with exposed heights. The route includes exposed sections and bridge crossings. Children under 14 must be accompanied by an adult; people with serious heart or respiratory conditions should consult a doctor before booking.
Accommodation is not included in this activity, but overnight stays can be arranged upon request.
Organized transfers are available from Mostar, Dubrovnik, and selected locations in Montenegro.

Hiking the beautiful via ferrata Solokov put with our guide Ogi was a highlight of our whole trip to Bosnia!! The company was really accommodating with pick up and we could tell we were in safe and expert hands. Ogi showed us the ropes (literally), took some great pictures for us, and gave us a truly incredible experience.
