Really good bolts.
Access: take the GR from the Nesque gorge. After 200 meters at the first fork, take the GR91 left uphill for about 1 km. In a pronounced turn to the left, there is a small cairn on the right which indicates the departure of a path, follow it in balcony. She leads you to the cliff.
