Further information(s) : Beautiful crag for casual climbers. Mainly single pitch routes and some 3 pitches routes as well. There is a very nice view of Chambéry basin. On vertical faces, this crag is nice for learning mutli pitch skills. The rock dries quickly after rain and shadow at the foot of the roof is really enjoyable on summer !
Located 2 km from the 'Col des prés" and 15 minutes driving from Chambéry, this crag is perfect for half day ... or maybe the whole day of climbing.
