Via Ferrata de Saint-Christophe-en-Oisans 
Leaving Grenoble towards Vizille then Vénosc - The Berardi by the road leading to the ski resorts of Les 2 Alpes and Alpe d'Huez. It falls directly on the site at the entrance of Saint-Christophe-en-Oisans. Crossing the
Campground Map Lake we get from the Via Ferrata.
The first section of the Via Ferrata is done by cross slightly above the turbulent waters Vénéon. From the outset, it is filled with the beauty of the scenery. Feet almost in a vacuum and water déchaînnée brings a great atmosphere. While moving along the Via Ferrata you can enjoy an unobstructed view of the Massif des Ecrins. A treat :-)
The second part, the longer it takes more than height and plays a little on the physical vertical and some sides, while continuing to cross. Little originality, the gateway to 15m the precarious balance to cross
:-) Finally the third part begins by crossing the road. Little hard piece of cliff that ends on large slabs. On arrival we are greeted by the Virgin of the collar after the 350 meters of climbing. Around 2:30 we will have been necessary to achieve it by taking our time.
Difficulty: D, Via Ferrata is certainly one of the best, enjoying a great southwest exposure. The view standing on the Vénéon and the Ecrins makes superb ride :-) And yet ... I'm not talking about pie in the village bar Mirtilla ... no ... I've said nothing ... Go ! It's HUGE ;-)
