Description

Le Paradis in Puiselet. It's a magical forest with amazing features. The rock dries very slowly around this area so not for winter or rainy season. The quality of some lines around are world class. Famous nice "elephant skin" slopers. By definition this also means that the rock is the softer kind, so just climb DRY rock as always!
Because of the nature of the area, no sun, stays wet for long, rock quality etc, the area in general gets a layer of moss extremely fast. So be prepared to brush the problem you want to climb. Underneath the moss you usually can find a gem! The area in general is very seldom visited and it's a good choice for busy weekends, especially warm ones. And a very good area in the summer.

The area is for sure a paradise, but to climb in this paradise one needs to deserve it with a bit of brushing.Would be nice to see this area bloom again (Look more cleaned than mossy!) , it has the potential to be a very good hide away with some high quality climbs and potential for a lot more undone here.. So for people seeking HIGH quality elephant skin sandstone first ascents, this could be an area to walk around and search in.

Family friendly? Well, kind of, but not stroller friendly at all. You can find no circuits in the area and almost all of the very easy climbs are covered in moss.

The boulders are on a north facing slope, some lower down some higher up, but reception around can vary from okay to nothing. So it's recommendable to download the area for offline use.
