Located in Saint-Paul-de-Fenouillet, less than an hour's drive from Perpignan, the via ferrata La Pichona ("the little one" in Catalan) is accessible to all. Comprising a succession of ladders and other fun workshops along the rocky walls and cliffs of a mountain, you can do it without any great difficulty, even with children!
