This activity is a cross between hiking and mountaineering. 700 m long, the via ferrata "Yves Pollet-Villard" is equipped with ladders, footbridges, ramps and cables. Situated in the Borderan Mountain, the via ferrata is near the Aravis Pass road.
The 700 m of the "Yves Pollet-Villard" via ferrata are carved directly into the flanks of the Borderan cliff, offering a spectacular route perched between 1,500 and 1,800 m above sea level.
