This is a Via ferrata with an accessible route, on the border of Bouches du Rhône and Vaucluse, just 40 minutes from Aix en Provence.
His initiation course called Via Natura is a great idea: a children's course (1.30 m minimum) with flora and fauna stations which give a naturalistic and historical overview of the cliffs overlooking Cavaillon.
The second loop is more sporty, it is Via Souterrata. The 2 loops are complementary and allow you to immerse yourself in the heart of the cliffs of Saint Jacques hill : “The Via Souterrata” crosses Colombier caves then the "Beaumes de Combarelles". Some passages are physical. They are easily mastered with a few techniques. The passages above or inside the caves are original and the teenagers love it.
The view of the red roofs of Cavaillon is very nice but the gaze goes even further, which makes it an atypical aerial route.
