05 Apr Beware, vultures!

 
Several years ago, when we went climbing in Verdon, the greatest danger was the “ voleurs” who steal in the cars in parking lots, but today we must pay attention not only to that human subspecies, but also to the “ vautours”, the vultures that in recent years have been reintroduced  in the Gorges.
 
It’s not that those big birds of prey are a danger to the humans, as they  have no interest on climbers, but during the breeding season the Parc naturel régional du Verdon has decided to ban the climbing activity in some areas and on some specific routes, so to ensure a bit of peace
 
Here is the list of routes and the dates of the ban.

Complying with those temporary restrictions, can ensure also in the future the chance to climb in this untouched, beautiful place
