La Petite Corse

La Petite Corse ( the small Corsica) is a little massif in the heart of the Chamrousse ski resort near Grenoble with 27 multi-pitch routes (ranging from 80 to 300m high) on beautiful colored gneiss. The routes are closed bolted, and the grades are pretty cool (with a mandatory grade rarely exceeding 5c). The atmosphere is airy without being austere and the view is wide and extends from the Grandes Rousses to Mont Aiguille. The fauna is always present, and ibexes, chamois and vultures will be your climbing companions.
