Description
I propose you to come and experience a vertical adventure on the Roc d'Anglars via ferrata in Saint-Antoine-Noble-Val, Tarn-et-Garonne.
A via ferrata can be defined as a vertginous hike (sometimes perched over 50 meters high!). It offers exceptional views and is a great way of climbing, abseiling, zip-lining... and discovering the flora and fauna that surround us.
The Roc d'Anglars via ferrata takes place mainly in the shade, so it's very pleasant in midsummer and as soon as temperatures rise. It offers a lovely view of the medieval village of Saint-Antonin-Noble-Val and the Quercy Causse, and is just a few minutes from the Aveyron river, ending with a swim or a drink in one of the "guinguettes".
It's designed to be accessible to beginners, but also offers a more sporty variant (welcome to those with a taste for wide open spaces and adventure ;-).
The minimum age is 12 (7 if you're an experienced climber).
After a pleasant approach walk, the Roc d'Anglars via ferrata consists of a long, ascending traverse from left to right, with varying degrees of difficulty depending on the options chosen. Some parts are common to all the routes. You quickly gain height until you reach a wide and vertiginous ledge. The itinerary can include climbing, abseiling, a zip line and ... a few surprises ;-)
If you fancy another similar route, you can follow me on the Roc du Gorb via ferrata in Bor-et-Bar (Aveyron). You can also complete the day with an introduction to rock climbing on one of the cliffs near Saint-Antonin-Noble-Val, or a little further on the Roc du Gorb.
