Our Via Ferrata tours will take place in rain, snow or shine! Whether you're planning a tour at AVA’s outpost in Idaho Springs or Buena Vista, it is best to come prepared for the weather. However, AVA's via ferrata management team reserves the right to cancel tours due to unsafe weather conditions, such as heavy winds and lightning. If your tour has been cancelled because of weather by management, we will contact you to refund or reschedule your reservation. AVA reserves the right to postpone or delay your trip up to one hour to wait out inclement weather and then resume once conditions are deemed safe by management. If the trip is started and less than 50% of the course is completed, you will be refunded 50% of the cost of the trip. If the trip is started and more than 50% of the course is completed, you will not be refunded.
