Climb, conquer, and descend—experience Curacao’s most thrilling vertical adventure on the Tafelberg!

What can you expect?

Looking for an unforgettable adventure on Curaçao? This Via Ferrata & Abseiling tour combines breathtaking views, adrenaline, and accessible adventure, all in one experience. The journey begins at the Rock Climbing Curaçao (RCC) shop, where participants receive a short introduction and are outfitted with all the necessary gear before heading to Tafelberg (a 10-minute drive).

After a 15-minute hike, the Via Ferrata route begins—climbing the rock face using a fixed steel cable system. A Via Ferrata is a protected climbing path where participants secure themselves to a steel cable anchored into the rock. Unlike traditional climbing, there’s no need for a belay partner; climbers clip into the cable for continuous safety as they ascend.

No previous climbing experience is needed, and the entire route is guided and securely managed. Reaching the summit is a thrilling accomplishment, rewarded with stunning panoramic views from the Proa lookout point.

The adventure ends with a heart-pounding 50-meter abseil through “El Abismo,” a vertical descent into the mountain’s core. Thanks to experienced guides and top-tier equipment, the entire experience feels as safe as it is exhilarating.

For those seeking a unique, guided challenge that blends nature, adrenaline, and unforgettable memories, this tour is an absolute must-do on the island.

We were looking for a true challenge and the full-day Tafelberg package delivered exactly that. The itinerary was packed with a thrilling via ferrata, breathtaking abseiling, and some truly spectacular rock climbing routes. ​A massive thank you to our guide, Juni, who was the highlight of the trip. He was incredibly patient, supportive, and maintained a positive, professional energy all day. It’s clear this company puts safety first, which allowed us to push our limits with total peace of mind. I have no hesitation recommending this to adventure seekers of any level!

Absolutely amazing experience! Jaime was thoughtful and patient and made sure we had the best routes for our experience level and ensured we were safe the entire time. We did the 1/2 with abseiling and that was amazing. The repelling was perfect and a great way to end the adventurous day. Great cruise excursion as they picked us up from the port without issues and cheaper than a taxi would have been. 2 adults and 2 teens - great time for everyone!
