A cable course over rocky ledges facing the Vanoise glaciers.
At an altitude of 2780 m, the "vertigo trail" of the Via Cavo del Mey, or "Tour de l'Aiguille de Mey", is accessible thanks to the installation of a handrail.
Some sections are akin to a via ferrata.
You need to reach the Brèche de la Portetta, then continue along the impressive rock towers to reach the starting point at the foot of the Aiguille de Mey wall.
In a breathtaking, aerial setting, where rock dominates space, the cabled high-altitude trail offers a superb panorama of the Vanoise ice cap, Grande Casse and Aiguille du Fruit.
IMPORTANT
Before embarking on a via ferrata, you must :
- know and apply safety instructions
- know the main via ferrata hazards
- ascertain the expected level of difficulty and your current physical abilities
- equip yourself with warm clothing and the right technical equipment (and use it correctly)
- make sure none of the components are part of products recalled by manufacturers
If you have any doubts, don't hesitate to ask a professional mountain guide to help you.
