Climbing the Via Ferrata de Cavaillon is a unique and exhilarating experience, perfectly situated on the limestone cliffs overlooking the charming town of Cavaillon in Provence, France. Graded B/C, this route strikes an excellent balance, making it highly accessible for beginners or families with older children, yet still providing enough thrill for more seasoned adventurers.
The ascent takes you along a well-equipped path featuring an array of metal rungs, sturdy ladders, and a thrilling monkey bridge that adds a significant dose of excitement. As you ascend, you're constantly treated to breathtaking panoramic views across the Durance Valley and the picturesque Luberon massif. The exposure is significant, adding to the sense of adventure, but the well-maintained cables and anchors ensure safety.
