Voie Directe

Approach

From the Solalex parking, cross the torrent by a footbridge and ascend a steep path to the foot of the route. The climb starts at an obvious large corner in the centre of the cliff, the left side having grey rock, the right side reddish rock. The broken terrain before the start is fairly exposed. There is a plaque with the route’s name at the start.
