Packing list for via ferrata tours

Via ferrata set - according to UIAA standard, with brake system and two via ferrata carabiners

climbing harness - as a general guideline, a normal harness is used, such as the one used for sport climbing. Here you should pay particular attention to adequate padding and wide (comfortable) contact surfaces. Material loops are less important, two are enough

climbing helmet - according to UIAA standard

climbing gloves - mostly with leather cover (protect against injuries on the steel cable)

Sewn slings + HMS carabiner - for self-securing (optional for long, demanding tours, so that you don't have to hang on the via ferrata set during breaks)
