Combe de l'Ermitage
A friendly little crag with some excellent mid grade routes. It has easy access, gets the sun until mid afternoon and is well bolted with mostly slabby / vertical routes up to 30m in length.
The crag has two distinct butresses, Les balcons des villes on the left (looking in) and Les jardins des villes on the right. The direct approach path arrives between the two.
Les Balcon has roughly 40 routes between 6b and 7c on the LHS and between 4c and 6a
Les Jardins has about 50 routes mostly between 5b and 7b.
Drive from the village of Villes d'Auzun towards Sault for 2km where there is a large car park on the right. From her follow the wide track South for 100m to wheer it turns right. You can either turn right and follow the track and signposts to the base of the cra (10 to 15 minutes), or scramble directly down to the crag (5 minutes)
Camping is available in Villes sur Auzon
