Climbing the hardest Via Ferrata in Chamonix area

22. 6. 2020

Spent a week in Chamonix and since it´s off season for alpine climbing my friend Paul took med on what´s suppose to be the hardest via ferrata in the valley: Via ferrata du Parc Thermal – St Gervais It has three parts. The first part is easy with good exposure and a bride. Grade AD+ Second part is hard if you are tall. Some overhanging traverses makes your arms pumped. Ends with a long Himalayan bridge. Grade D+ Third part is wet and slippery due to the waterfall. It´s overhanging and physical. Grade TD+ I would not recommend this for the beginner (Via Ferrata Evettes grade AD+ at Flegere in Chamonix is better then) but good fun for someone who is not scared of heights and want a great workout.
