Via Ferrata in Saint Christophe, Oisans. 1-day trip w/ a IFMGA/UIAGM certified mountain guide

Alps

1/2 Day

Apr, Jun - Nov

Description

Please join me for a 1/2 day of Via Ferrata, along the Vénéon river, in a very beautiful place in the heart of the Ecrins Massif.

Via ferrata is a great activity to do with your family and/or your friends.

The itinerary consists of 2 sections:

Section 1 The first section overlooks Vénéon and lasts for 2 ½ hours. One part of the via ferrata is equipped with a 10 meters bridge and offers a magnificent view on the valley.

Section 2 The second section is easier and takes 30 minutes. It is ideal for beginners.

The access to the via ferrata is very simple and takes only a few minutes. The route does not present any particular technical difficulty.

The journey ends in the beautiful village of Saint-Christophe-en-Oisans, very typical of the region.

If you are interested by this awesome ½ day outdoor activity, please get in touch with me. Note that you can set up your own group or join an existing one.

What people are saying about Guides de l'Oisans

Quentin is simply an awesome guide. It was one of my first climbing experiences and Quentin helped me feel safe. He is very professional and knows how to manage groups of people. Despite the changes in our project, Quentin always tried to accomodate the best options for the group. His experience and knowledge of the mountain gave confidence to each group member. The fact that he is both physiotherapist and guide is a great advantage, regarding physical preparation and stretching for example. Thanks Quentin! And see you next year on top of the Mont-Blanc!
