루트들 La Grotte에서

A boulder move that will make you doubt! (broken hold?)

A hard move that makes the route more intense.

Not too steep but lacking holds...

A harder variation to Scandale.

Some reachy moves.

Keep some for the end. Big moves on tufas, some crimps and a good rest in-between.

A popular warm up to get acquainted with the style of climbing in the cave. Polished.

Cruisy with one moderately hard move on an undercling (that you can skip). Well bolted.

Start on the left of the boulder (the name of the route is marked under the first bolt). Cruisy until a good rest, followed by a right-trending cruxy sequence.

Fun. One hard move to the top. Good rests in-between. Polished. Bien lustrée. Crux en haut mais de bons repos pour se refaire si besoin.

Hard...

A hold has broken. Bouldery. Go straight up into the dihedral.

Not often repeated despite some great moves.

A must.

Beautiful route with a fingery section.

Sustained.

Starts on the easy juggy slab leading to a gulley. A steep classic of the cave with a crux guarding the top.

A bit of a core move to start.

One of the longest lines here.

Explosive start where feet often come off.

Almost legendary. Another classic of the cave.

Very pretty line with a tufa to finish. Some say a bit committing at the top.

Hard start and finger. All the best climbers used to try this route.

Two big dynos.

Hard sloppers on a left-trending traverse. Hard move to finish.

Variation of L'Arche de Nausée with a finish straight in the hole.

Big compact overhang.

The route that made this place an international venue. In 1989, no 8c had been red pointed yet. French climber Alex Duboc was pretty close from sending but it's the British powerhouse Ben Moon who finally snatched the first ascent.

Ben originally named the route Maginot Line in reference to a French strategic defeat during World War II, when the Germans successfully invaded France by going around the French defence line.

In 1994, JB Tribout frees the extension and names it "La Lune dans le Caniveau" (Now "Super Plafond") which is a ridiculous translation of "Ben Moon" in French ("The moon in the sewer").

Start on the boulder and step all the way to the left. The tufa leads to the chains.

Keep going all the way to the top...

A short and intense boulder problem. Better like drop knees.

Careful walking to the start of this one. Complicated and bouldery.

A popular easy warm up on polished holds.

A newer addition that is worth a go.

A pebble indicates the start but its marking is gone. A very cool pockety finish.

Look for a little pebble marked "La Clara" for the start. Nice and safe. Watch for loose rocks, especially if you're belaying.
