Hiking
The Cinglegros is a large rocky block which culminates at 772 meters. From its summit, the view of the Gorges du Tarn is often considered the most splendid.
When climbing, be careful on the ladders. The first is very steep and it is advisable to position yourself facing the rock for the descent. The second is unsealed on one side. Be extra vigilant if the ladders are wet.
Depending on the season, griffon vultures hover around. Do not forget your pair of binoculars to observe them more closely.

The detour on some iron ladders on the rock spur definitely worth it and takes just half an hour, although on a sign on the way an hour is specified.

Hiking
You should not see the vertigo because you have to cross several gaps via suspended ladders. Some passages require a bit of climbing for people of small stature.
Impregnable point of view on the valley. If you are lucky in the morning it is possible to observe griffon vultures.
Depending on your physical condition and the time spent at the top, it takes 30min-1h there and back.
