access issues

Several options to park in Pompaples, including the car park of the Hospital which will cost you a few CHF. It is also possible to have a quicker access to sectors "Le Chaney" by parking in a small parking lot along the road between Pompaples and Croy. By train, you shall alight at La Sarraz and walk towards Pompaples and then the main Cliff (about 25 min)

ethic

Respect the place and its surroundings. Pay attention to wildlife. There are periods of the year where some sectors are "closed" in order to let nature do its magic. Make sure you respect the quietness of the hospital surroundings.
