Via Ferrata Des Plates de la Daille

Scaling the Via Ferrata Des Plates de la Daille is an exhilarating and demanding adventure, truly putting climbers to the test. Graded D/E, it's unequivocally designed for experienced ferratists with a solid head for heights and excellent arm strength, making it unsuitable for novices. Located near Val d'Isère, its approach already offers stunning alpine vistas before you even clip in.

The route itself wastes no time gaining verticality. You'll encounter sustained, exposed ascents, often feeling truly airborne as you navigate robust steel cables, strategically placed rungs, and ladders. The 'D' sections are consistently challenging, demanding sustained effort. However, it's the 'E' elements that truly define this via ferrata, featuring potentially overhanging sections, very technical traverses, or particularly strenuous vertical pitches that push your physical and mental limits.

Throughout the climb, panoramic views of the Tarentaise Valley and the surrounding peaks unfold beneath you, serving as a breathtaking reward for the intense exertion. The sense of exposure is constant and thrilling. Reaching the top is met with a profound sense of accomplishment and exhilaration. A marked path typically leads back down, allowing you to reflect on an unforgettable and truly athletic alpine experience.
