Mountaineering and Climbing
5/5
1 review

Cairo in the Alpes-de Haute-Provence also has its impressive vertiginous and aerial monument which is worth the detour, but it is not a large pyramid... No, here it is especially its via ferrata which is worth the detour, not to be missed under any circumstances for thrill-seekers.

Sporty friends, don't hesitate to go on the Via Ferrata de la Grande Fistoire. Spread out on a 250 m high limestone wall, it includes a 60 m long footbridge. The access is autonomous for the most experienced. For beginners, accompanied by a guide, they can also discover this hike of vertigo. It is necessary to have a strong heart, but the adventure is worth it. Beware! It is dangerous to embark on the via ferrata without suitable alpine equipment and without perfect knowledge of its use. All the necessary equipment can be rented on the spot, by reservation and at very reasonable prices as for the access, taking into account the essential maintenance costs of the site.

Victim of its success, in busy periods, waiting times for equipment are possible. Respect the direction of the itinerary and do not leave it. For reservations and a list of available guides and climbing instructors, contact the Maison du tourisme, which manages this beautiful via ferrata on site. For those who have never been there, don't hesitate to discover it on its particularly well done and detailed website.
