Limestone
Pick a pocket and pull. Some say as good as Céüse.
Description
http://www.topo-tarn-jonte-dourbie.info/fr/
Probably best enjoyed at about 7a and above. A lot find it a tricky place to onsight. The climbing is dominated by pockets and long resistance routes. The season is between april to oktober, in the winter time the sun does not reach the bottom of the valley and therefore it is too cold. If you are looking for shady place or sunny you can always find a good crag. It is hard to find routes with bad quality, the bolting is very good the rock quality perfect, not polished and very compact.
Access issues
Don't car camp in the car parking areas, there are regular police patrols.
Approach
<5 min
Very short walks from the road.
Ethic inherited from France
Park where indicated, take care of the environment, buy the local guidebook when possible (this is one of the ways you can help local route setters), clean up your shoes before climbing, don't spray beta, be polite.
History
One of the more recently developed areas in France. Not polished yet like a few of the older school areas. Still more to come.
