Widely considered to be 'the best crag in the world', Céüse certainly has the strongest claim to being the best sport crag in France - and there's some pretty stiff competition! Although famed for long, steep, hard routes there is something brilliant here for everyone: from steep and juggy, to vertical and technical, plus a number of multi-pitch outings.
