Bien vu Papi, de surcroît cet itinéraire et ce programme ne répondes a aucune logique géographique à moins d'aimer les vas et vient ...ou de posséder un hélicoptère...

I agree with Papi Daniel, your itinerary is way too ambitious. Better to visit a small number of areas and spend a few days in each doing several vias. Otherwise you're going to spend all your time in the car (or the helicopter).

Hi Ian,
I wanted to go to Barcelona, and do a couple of via ferratas on my way there and returning home. With 2 drivers, both driving 300 km daily, it is doable. Anyway, I had to cancel one climb because of the snow and minus degrees, and postpone others because of the rainy weather. I can't find any possibility of editing (or deleting) my posts here.

I see. Changes of plans affect us all, it's just life.  But really I think you'd get much more out of a trip if it was relaxed rather than a race.
No, you can't delete posts, nobody can except Laurent, the Web Master.

Ian, I do not know where are you from, but it is probably easier for you to get to the via ferrata sites, as they are so many in your vicinity. On the other hand, I need to travel several thousand km-s jut to get there. Let's choose a closer via ferrata site, eg. Garda lake. I need to travel 1500 km, this would be a 22 h drive, just to get there, and begin to "relax" On my way home I need to drive this distance, once again. Travelling by plane is not a very good or cheap option for me, because of baggage restrictions, travelling time to reach the departure and arrival airports, rent-a-car to get from the airports to the mountain, and accomodation needs, Thus is more convenient for me to travel with my own car, sleep in a tent, split the driving in shorter, doable parts, and split the fuel costs with travel companions. By the way, I am a freelancer, and I could be very flexible, could make more relaxed, longer trips. But probably I could not find travel companions, because others have to work, and they can have only shorter free time, weekends, or a longer holiday just once a year.

I understand the problem. I'm lucky enough to be able to see the Crolles via ferrata from my desk, and I have relatively easy access to a large number of vias being based near Grenoble.
When I lived in Dresden, however, that was not the case. About the only climbing close by was in Saxon Switzerland, on sandstone with all kinds of special techniques. I can tell you that during that time I missed the via ferratas terribly.
You'll be pleased to hear (or not...  ) that I take full advantage of the situation here, climbing at least once a week in summer but maintaining a regular rhythm throughout the year.

Because of the rainy weather I had to postpone a few climbs. But, I am planning a few via ferratas near Grenoble. On 5th May L' Escale à Peille near Nice; on 7th May Via ferrata de la Grande Fistoire, Le Caire; and on 9th June Via ferrata du Diable, Aussois.
If something changes, I will update the facebook event pages https://www.facebook.com/groups/ViaFerrataInEurope/

I am planning the Via ferrata du Diable - Aussois, and VF Grande Fistoire - La-Motte-du-Caire (once again) at the end of June. If someone wants to climb with me, send me a message. Ian, this is near Grenoble, so I am open for suggestions, too https://www.facebook.com/events/1423473284622557/
