Following natural rock bands rising through the rock; light passages alternating with breezy, impressive, manoeuvres. Plenty of air under the soles. In front of the viewpoint La Clusette (1119 m) the via ferrata ends (1¾ hours), but the following path there is definitely worth a gander (up to the antenna - but not further!)
