The trees are gone and the path has turned steep. Take one last break, top up your water, splash your face and carry on up. Press the climbing toe into the rock and add a few more metres of height to your tally. Give yourself a hand with the steel cable and pegs. Now there are just a few last steps to the summit. Nice work. But save the congratulations until after the descent through the scree field. That'll be quite a ride. Still, nothing these low trekking shoes – wrapped in a protective rand – can't handle.

The tough rubber rand is designed to protect both your feet and the shoes themselves. The waterproof Gore-Tex® membrane keeps moisture out. And with the Vibram® Ground sole and its sharp climbing edge you can stand on even the smallest footholds on rock. So just lace up tight – the laces run right down to the toe, like on climbing shoes – and head on up. Along a via ferrata, a mountain trail, over rock steps.
