K4 (difficult):

"Even on exposed or steep sections, only a wire rope safety system is available (arm strength required). Artificial holds such as hooks or iron steps are only at the most difficult points. An exception are the sport via ferratas "à la française," which are generally secured more extensively but also feature the most exposed passages." (Source: SAC via ferrata scale)
