I did the k3 with some friends and the via ferrata was well maintained. It was my first via ferrata and I would not recommend it as a first time via ferrata since it has some exposed parts, but in terms of physical requirements it wasn’t too hard. I had my own equipment and I would recommend you bring your own, some of my friends had to rent it there and the system they use has a single clip, which technically makes the experience safer because it can’t come off, but it would occasionally get stuck and you really don’t want that when you are looking down a cliff.

Make a day out of it! Beautiful via ferrata with various difficulties 👌🏻 The easy part was busy but the other two more difficult parts were not busy at all. I took cable car to go up. Then from the top it’s 15minutes walk to via ferrata start. The via ferrata took 3hours to complete( I did the medium difficulty) From the end of the via ferrata to the top of cable car it was 20-30minutes walk downhill.

Toller variantenreicher Steig, Bericht zur K5 «Plein Vide 1»: Direkt ab Einstieg senkrecht nach oben und durch mehrere Überhänge. Einstufung «sehr schwierig» ist voll gerechtfertigt. Nur begehen bei hoher Sicherheit und Erfahrung. Zusätzliches Klettermaterial wie Standschlinge oder Nabelschnur für das Absichern sehr empfohlen. Typisch französisch abgesichert: schlappes Führungsseil, viel Eisen. Beim Netz Zeit und Platz zum Ausruhen. Anschliessend nur noch einen kurzen Überhang, der mit einigen wenigen Zügen rasch durchstiegen ist. Ab dann relaxtes Steigeln inklusive durchklettern eines engen Lochs. Tolle Aussicht von oben und spektakuläre Hängebrücke. Hier kann wieder zwischen schwierigen und leichten Passagen gewählt werden.

It is a splendid Via Ferrata until you reach the top. Climbing down is just less fun and there is a considerate amount of it after you reach the summit. The biggest drawback is their safety clipping system. There were many situations where it was downright frustrating to maneuver the damn clip for the thousandth time. It is too heavy and often causing danger because you have to use one hand to move the clip and hold on to the wall with the other. Without that terrible system it would easily be a four star climb. The other drawback was the lack of signage for the return trip down. We ended up sliding down a slippery forest in order to find the path back to base. The staff was super nice and with better waypoints that guide you, and a different safety system it would be outstanding. (I will say that the rental rates are very low and fair.) We will come back with...

Really friendly staff. Rented equipment was good (other reviews said otherwise, but we had no problems and the explanation was good). If you're fast, you should consider renting other equipment elsewhere, with 2 carabiners, to allow you to overtake others. There are also shortcuts (K4 difficulty) to overtake others as well.

We were first timers and the easiest (K3) route was good for us, but it will be challenging for people who are not in shape.

The website says to get gloves. Do this. We had gloves and we wouldn't have had a fun time if we didn't.

Bring enough water, we went through 1L each and were thirsty when...

Le personnel d'accueil et les personnes qui travaillent pour Charmey sont vraiment super sympas et souriants. Ça me fait toujours plaisir de venir faire des activités à Charmey.

Concernant la Via Ferrata, que j'ai testé pour la première fois aujourd'hui (K3).

Elle est accessible relativement facilement, mais attention pas pour tout le monde. Attention de ne pas vous surestimer. La vue est magnifique, alors profitez-en !

Pour les parents qui veulent aller trop vite avec vos enfants. Je vous conseille de ne pas venir avec vos enfants trop jeunes. Ils devraient commencer par faire de l'escalade et de l'accrobranche avant de se mettre à la Via Ferrata. Encore aujourd'hui, un enfant a paniqué et est resté bloqué en début de parcours. L'hélico à du venir le chercher dans la falaise.

Par contre le baudrier et le système qui est loué par Charmey n'est à mon goût pas optimal et je vous conseille de ne PAS LE LOUER, pour les raisons suivantes :

Impossible de dépasser un groupe qui est plus lent. Donc on doit rester derrière et attendre. Parfois, c'est très physique d'attendre au milieu d'une paroi. Si un enfant panique, il n'est pas possible de vraiment bien l'aider car il est bloqué. Le système est parfois dur à passer entre chaque support métallique. C'est même parfois un casse-tête. Si une personne est bloquée, ça provoque un énorme bouchon.

Je vous conseille fortement de louer ou d'acheter votre propre matériel dans un magasin de montagne avec baudrier, casque et longes de sécurité et de ne pas utiliser le matériel loué par Charmey qui est uniquement bien pour faire de l'accrobranche.

Commencez par faire des Via Ferrata de niveau facile, cela vous évitera de devoir appeler l'hélicoptère pour venir vous aider au milieu...
