The rock faces around Champery offer mountaineering experiences suitable for first timers and experienced mountain-men. There are numerous free climbing routes and a Via Ferrata course about 460 meters long. The local climbing routes number about 47 upwards and range in difficulty from 3+ to 7b in the French grading system. Many of the climbs are suitable for beginners and children. And with local guides offering tuition there is nothing to stop making a family day out of it.
For the uninitiated a Champery guiding company run instructional tours on the Via Ferrata course which is even suitable for children. No excuses!
