Crag features

Sunny and (mainly) slabby  with 1-3 pitch routes fully bolted, grades between 3b and 5b on the main slab, with a couple of harder routes on the Left Wall.

The slab is split roughly into 3 by a prominant crack system on the left and a water runnel on the right. To the right of the water runnel is the upper terrace, from which the easier routes start.

Best of all, there is a really awesome little ice cream shop in Lillaz village (across the bridge, 50m on the left). A recommended end to the day.

A topo is visible online (Nov 22) here: https://climbingaway.fr/photo_topo/1793/5d32cca2172f4.jpg

I was there today, bolts and lower off's in good condition, its a pleasant crag with great views, easy simple climbing - similar to little Tryfan but sunnier!
