Description

Update information

Characteristics

A via ferrata of easier difficulty, leading over the river Guil, suitable for beginners and children. It goes through a beautiful canyon with blue water under the castle, where canoeists sail under you. There is also one 5-meter monkey bridge and one 30-meter Nepalese bridge. There are two escape routes, so do not confuse them with the end of the ferrata and continue further. The path crosses an old route with three bridges over the river leading to the castle, which is unfortunately closed due to the owner of the castle. Difficulty B/C is only on one short section. For most of the path, there are cramps for both the legs and hands.

Arrival

By car to the village of Château-Queyras, where there is a large parking lot for paddlers and ferratists. Parking is free.

Approach

From the parking lot across the bridge and after the bridge turn right to the start sign.

Exit

Follow the asphalt road back to the bridge and the parking lot.

Interesting facts

2014 - Ferrata closed, the owner of the castle and land demanded payment from the village, because the ferrata runs through his property.
2015 - New route built on the other side of the river outside the castle grounds, and opened again.
