Hi all - is there a climbing guide that covers the Jura mountains - my wife and i are planning to climb here at the end of the month. I can't find much on line (bar 20 routes in the vertical life app) but I'm actually in the Jura until Sunday (on a non climbing trip) so could pop into a shop if anyone knows of a climbing shop?

Ideally easy climbs up to low 6s .

Cheers!

Ewan

I'm assuming you mean the Jura that are in France/Switzerland/Germany? If you mean Poland then I can't help, sorry. 

If France/Switzerland/Germany then Plaisir Jura is the book you want: https://www.filidor.ch/Pages/Book.aspx?Id=82

If you buy the book you get a code to download all the data to your tablet/phone. 

You can also get some info on the spread of grades/crags etc at: https://www.vertical-life.info/en/areas/56-jura-switzerland (just click on the different areas for more details). 

If you don't want to shell out nearly 40 quid for the book then you can get all the data in the book via the Vertical Life app. I'm assuming the credits are the same on Android/iPhone etc but it's 50 credits for the whole book (works out about £15 or thereabouts as 60 credits = £16.99 ) or you can buy individual crags etc.

The guidebook mentioned is documented on our very own UKC, most of the crags are included, but not all of them:

Rocher de la Goulette#maps

If you fail to get the guidebook the small crag (Rocher de la Goulette) above has a route board at the base. Nice place.
