The concept of the Via Ferrata came about in Italy and was largely developed in this country. A variant of rock climbing, it involves following a route through the rocks, equipped with a double-length safety rope. After collecting your equipment, take the cable car to the start of the Via Ferrata and get ready to start having fun!

There are two Via Ferrata in Les Diablerets:
The "Tete au Chamois", or "Rocher Jaune" Via Ferrata is on the "rocher jaune", a superb cliff under the first stretch of the Glacier 3000 cable car line. The main difficulties lie in the many high, overhanging parts of the route. The start of the route can be reached by riding the Glacier 3000 cable car to the Col du Pillon (10 minutes) or on foot (2 hours).
