Up and Down
20 minsThe right-hand Sector of Roc à Steph is the first section reached on the approach. It has a baker's dozen of well-bolted routes on decent rock, with the added bonus of plenty of summer shade from the trees. Many of the climbs have hard starts leading to sustained wall-climbing above. Guidebook page 80.
