A climbing spot in an awesome alpine setting with rather harder to very hard and long routes. One of the biggest sport climbing areas in the Wallis (Valais).
Climbing spot at an altitude of about 1800m near a small lake (barrage de Zeuzier). Mostly cruxy and challenging routes. Sectors see lots of sun, shade in late afternoon. The cliff base is often steep and exposed and thus not suitable for kids.
Visitors should not drive past the dam, camping is forbidden in the area (source in French).
Make your way to Sion and from there up to the lake. There is also public transport (bus) available.
Parking at the lake: (46.344228, 7.433154)
Camping is forbidden on the whole area.
Initially devloped by Jean Marie Moos, Dominique Lugon, Jean Marie Porcellona, Daniel Blanc, François Mathey, Didier Berthod in the years 1997 to 2005.
