Enjoy the splendid views from the cliffs of Aveyron on the via ferrata de Truyère in Aubrac!

The via ferrata is an activity that combines hiking and climbing, giving you the chance to spend some quality time with family and friends. The Truyère via ferrata offers you a half-day of adventure: monkey bridges, Nepalese bridges, footbridges and lots of ladders await you along the way. Accessible from age 12, this via ferrata in Aubrac has the advantage of offering superb views of the Truyères gorges.

Classified as a Natura 2000 area for their biodiversity, the Truyères gorges are one of France's most remarkable sites for the conservation of birds of prey, particularly the peregrine falcon. Thanks to the via ferrata, you'll be up close and personal with this unique wild environment!

For your safety, you'll be supervised by a professional instructor with over 20 years' experience. With his help and guidance, you'll move along a cliff on a "railroad track" equipped with a harness attached to a cable. Your instructor will be right behind you, guiding and advising you at all times. The setting for the first part of the via ferrata is inspired by a jungle route, before giving way to a more mineral environment with its many steel ladders, monkey bridges and other footbridges.

The Truyères via ferrata offers breathtaking panoramas of the unspoilt landscapes of the Occitanie region! So don't wait, book your activity in Aubrac and discover the Truyère via ferrata!
