I wonder this as well. I don't have any direct experience with Via
Ferratas, but reading these two pages makes me think that the term seems to
be used for more involved routes than a short set of stairs or hand-holds:
- https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Via_ferrata
- https://chamonixallyear.com/what-need-via-ferrata-in-chamonix/
I'm interested if those with more familiarity think a short segment of iron
steps/hand-holds (and not the extra protection cable) or only a short
length of optional protection rope/cable would qualify for
highway=via_ferrata.
