SITE D’ESCALADE DU CAUSSANEL

About

The Caussanel climbing site is endowed with beautifully sculpted limestone (dolomite), making it ideal for a wide variety of climbing styles. It offers 42 equipped routes ranging from 4c to 6c+, with a majority of very long routes (25-30 meters) offering an overhanging view of the Orb valley when you reach the belay. The site has three juxtaposed sectors. The two former sectors (right and left) have 32 routes ranging from 4c to 6c+, with the majority between 5b and 6b. Beware, most of the routes are over 30 meters long, with a few going up to 40 meters. On some routes, you’ll find an intermediate belay. The last sector, the one furthest to the left, has 10 shorter routes, ranging from 5b to 6b, with the majority between 5c and 6a. This west-facing site is in the shade until early afternoon. It is very exposed to the Tramontana wind. The approach walk is 10 minutes uphill from the parking lot. Please note that the foot of the tracks is not suitable for young children. For further information, please refer to the “Escalades dans les Massifs du Haut-Languedoc” guidebook, on sale at nearby tourist offices.
