Description

Russan is a beautiful located climbing spot along the river Gardon. The cliff faces south so it is perfect for cold winter days but during spring and autumn climbing can also be very nice! The routes below 7a are mainly slabs on a very solid and compact rock. If you go for higher grades the climbing gets steeper with some tufas.
