Further information(s) : This cliff is very interesting for summer because it is cool due to its northeast aspect (shadow from 12.00).
It is quiet here and there is a beautiful view of Lac du Bourget. Access is very short and easy for kids who can play carefree in the fields lining the main cliff. It climbs a compact limestone rock with little grain taken where some supernatural may surprise you! The climbing is technical and demanding for the feet and fingers. There are two different areas to satisfy your cravings. However, it must be comfortable in 6b.
