Via Ferrata
For an alternative experience as popular and enjoyable as climbing - think of the Via Ferrata. You will navigate through the rocky walls and cliffs with minimal equipment and a monitor to supervise and accompany you, whether you are beginners or not. Awaken the adventurer's soul in you and come explore the territory in a different way, above the void!
Meet in Saint Jean d'Aulps, a few minutes from Morzine by car, in the Aulps valley. The via ferrata of the Rocher de la Chaux offers two routes. The first, the eye of the elephant, is a very aerial route that sneaks between the overhangs with a succession of very athletic and continuous passages. Two escapes allow you to reach an easier route, called the elephant's head.
The path is relatively steep and
sometimes slippery in wet weather. Suitable shoes are highly
recommended. Another safety point, via ferrata is prohibited to
inexperienced adults and minors unaccompanied by a confirmed adult.
Also, do not engage in stormy weather or at night.
Taking into consideration all the safety tips and if you are not
dizzy, that you are looking for a summer adventure like no other in
the heart of the Portes du Soleil, then the Via Ferrata certainly
deserves a place of choice on your list!
