Via ferrata of Saint Christophe en Oisans - Section 2

Description

Pedestrian access St Christophe :
At the foot of the Venosc gondola, walk down to the Bourg d'Arud bridge and join the path to Plan du Lac. At the white-water base, follow signs for Le Puy / Saint Christophe en Oisans.

This is a ferrata hike for 6-year-olds and up! Its original route was improved in 2018 to create escape routes and make it accessible to younger climbers. A continuation of the 1st part, it takes you to the top of the village.

TECHNICAL INFORMATION :
2nd section: itinerary accessible to children aged 6 and over, with no difficulties.
Duration: 1h30
Difficulty: PD
Start point: 1385 m
Difference in altitude: 160 m

Equipment hire available at the whitewater base at Plan du lac.

The return journey from the Collet statue takes around 15 minutes: take the path down to the village, and a few minutes from the finish, follow the newly laid-out route. Some steep sections will require adults to be vigilant with younger children.

For more experienced climbers, there's a via ferrata starting from Plan du Lac and finishing at Le Banchet or Le Collet. This section is much more aerial and challenging.
