St. LLorenc de Montgal
A large climbing area in a beautiful location next to the reservoirs of Panté de Saint LLorenc de Montgal. The crags face south and are a mixture of solid red limestone and conglomerate. The former thinks that it is granite. and hence gives powerful and technical climbing. The conglemerate is, well, conglomerate. The south facing nature makes the crags most suitable as a winter or early / late year destination. There are many hard test pieces, often undergraded and getting slippier than when first done. Alongside these are longer, easier multi pitch routes.
