Further information(s) : Located on the foothills of Revard and in the past "reserved" to locals, Mouxy has the advantage to propose routes of all levels. There you climb in pleasant surroundings, in the woods, with a beautiful view of the lake from the top of the routes. Then covers almost the entire lake and its surroundings.
Like many areas in Savoie Mouxy is accessible to all, big and small, strong and less strong. A pleasant walk of approach, excellent bolting (cliff agreement with the CD FFME).
To conclude presentation, two small details that are importance!
Due to the aspects and proximity of trees, cliff, regarding the easy routes, takes time to dry.
But the hard routes of the balm stay dry, which makes it possible to climb even when it rains.
Finally, there are many rocks hidden in the woods were cleared for practice the block and some even have relays to make belays there.

Helmet more than recommended. Frequent rock falls from the top of the cliff and falling in the woods.
