Located in the Gorges Torrent d’Ailefroide, near the village of Pelvoux les Claux, in the valley of Vallouise in the Pays des Ecrins, the via ferrata we will be enjoying is an exciting and wonderfully scenic.
Positioned in a narrow gorge, we will be making our way from one bank to another. Despite appearing precarious, you can rest assured that you will be safe and secure the entire time. In fact, the via ferrata is so safe, and so accessible, that children as young as 8 years old can enjoy it!
There are also cable bridges that rest above the Torrent of Ailefroide river that we can traverse on this trip as well. Fed by the white glacier, the river is a beautiful sight.
There are three parts on this via ferrata course. And while the first part will be the purpose of this half-day trip, you can also enjoy the longer, integral part as well. And while it is longer than the first part, it is only slightly more challenging. As a result, children as young as 10 years old can enjoy it.
Because of the minimal level of difficulty and non-technical nature of this trip, no prior experience is required. However, you should be in good physical condition.
Exciting and picturesque, this via ferrata in the Ailefroide gorges is a great way to spend a few hours. To experience it for yourself, just send me a request. I look forward to hearing from you.
I also offer another via ferrata program above the beautiful town of Les Vigneaux.

We had a fantastic trip. Our guide kept us safe, but also stretched us and taught us new skills along the way - it doesn't get much better than that!
