The area offers excellent facilities for climbers
of all standards, from raw novice to expert.
Avoriaz and Sameons offer 'Via Ferreta' - essentially
climbing along a cliff face whilst attached
to pre-fixed steel cables. Lots of exhilaration,
but of course completely safe.
With local guides
we can arrange climbing in Le Vallee d'Aulps
and Via Ferratta at Avoriaz or nearby Sameons.
These can be booked by the half day and are
available to experienced climbers, children
and beginners.
Via Ferratta is a system of climbing with a
harness and 2 carabineers, one always attached
to a security line embedded in the rock face.
A variation of this approach has lead to several
Adventure Parks, climbing through trees, negotiating
different obstacles and zip wires.
