Summary
Limestone
Great Crag for climbers in the 7th and 8th grade. You ll need to master all styles of climbing to be successful (crimps, sloppers, overhang, slab, power, endurance...). Some of the best lines are really aestethics, in a beautiful and quiet environment. You will be rewarded with a view on the Mont Blanc if you reach the top of most routes.

South West
35-40m wall. Quality lines, demanding routes. Most route names and grades are written down on the rock. Helmet recommended since some small rocks would sometimes fall from the very top of the crag
Access issues
Park on the small space just before the turn. Only 4 or 5 cars can fit. Parking here is only tolerated, so make sure you find another place somewhere else if it s already packed.
Approach
Steep hike
5-10 min
From the road turn, cross the road towards a weird wooden cow totem. Head down towards the electrical cables then take right and follow the top of the cliff. After a short while you ll see a path and then some fixed ropes on trees heading down. After a few minutes of fairly steep walk you ll find the first routes.
