Description

Possibly the crappiest climbing area in the gorge. Would not recommend climbing here unless you have exhausted the other climbing in the gorge (which is unlikely). The routes here are short 15-20 meters. The upside is that most of the bolts are modern and in good condition.

Getting There

Head towards Moustiers from La Palud for 3.7 km. You will see a small area to park on the left side of the road. It is actual the start of an old road. Part of an old stone building is located just past the parking spot on the right. Supposedly there is a trail that heads down hill but it is hard to locate and lost in places. The easiest way is to head directly down the center of the drainage for about ten minutes until you reach a couple ropes that help you scramble down a steep section. At the bottom of the rope lines, turn left and wander through the bushes at the base of the cliff and you will see the area.
