Carnival GeoAdventure Vias Ferratas

This was a two-day adventure into inner remote Portugal to climb two via ferrata while understanding how plate tectonics work. We went up to go along a 460-440 millions year old beaches deposited by extinct seas that have been raised, folded and faulted throughout millions of years into the vertical.

On the first day geoadventures learned and practice basic techniques on a low difficulty Via Ferrata in Serra do Muradal while discovering the sediments deposited by Rheic Ocean, an ancient ocean that no longer exits.

On the second day GeoAdventurers climbed a 2100m long grade K3 Ferrata, crossing two suspended cable bridges, and ending in Siza Viera Watch Tower in Serra das Talhadas while discovering the result of collision between continents that created super continent Pangea.
