One of easiest routes on this wall (similar in grade to Voie d'Eliane) in the Sector les Buis. Excellent grey limestone, extremely well protected, at times vegetated.
Getting there
From Grenoble there are two alternatives. Either follow signs for the Vercours park through the narrow gorges via Villard De Lans and Choranche. Before Pont en Royans turn right to the village Presles. Alternativley, drive north up the motorway, exit at St. Romans and continue for Pont en Royan and Presles.
Before reaching Presles (65km from Grenoble) leave the car at the penultimate hairpin curve (tiny parking lot). A small path leads down southwards to the left-hand sectors. Alternatively, park the car slightly higher on the side of the road or on the edge of the plateau. (the descent path leads down to here). Access to the more distant sectors (Paroi Rouge & Triangle de Choranche) is either from above via abseils (equipped descent line), or from the road which leads to the Choranche cave. Access
This is the first sector on the left-hand side of the cliff. Walk directly from the parking lot. Descent
Follow the path easily down leftwards to the road. Gear
Well equipped pitches and belays
