Via ferrata de la cascade

Via Ferrata de la Cascade is an equipped climbing route in the Alps that combines natural rock with metal components fixed into the stone. The path moves through different terrain using ladders, cables, and iron rungs to guide climbers upward.

The route was created as part of developing Les Orres into an Alpine sports center. It was built as a permanent climbing installation accessible to climbers of different skill levels.

This mountain route represents French Alpine engineering excellence, combining natural rock formations with manufactured climbing elements for technical advancement.

Visitors should bring sturdy footwear, a head for heights, and basic climbing experience, as the route includes exposed sections over rock. The best time to visit is May through October when conditions are more stable and less snow covers the path.

Steel bridges suspended in mid-air span deep crevasses, combining thrills with safety engineering for a memorable experience. These crossings demand focus and deliver the intensity of true mountaineering.
