Conquer a cliff millions of years old! The nine-hour via ferrata du Rocher promises unforgettable sensations and memories.
Its fun and varied route faces south-east and offers several itineraries. It is classified as fairly difficult to difficult (750 m, duration 50 mins to 4 hrs) and is reached after a 45-minute approach walk from downtown Digne-les-Bains. You’ll enjoy breathtaking views over the town and the Bléone valley. You’ll also catch a glimpse of some of the iconic landscapes of the Haute-Provence Geopark, such as the Pic de Couard and the Barre des Dourbes, a long limestone bar 19 km long.
The via ferrata is perfectly integrated into its environment, and information panels help you to discover the animals of rocky environments and their habitat (birds, bats).
Remember that it is essential to have specific equipment (hire from the Digne-les-Bains Tourist Office, free access if you have your own equipment). Professional supervision recommended.
