climbing guidebook Sainte Victoire

Pure pleasure. Sainte Victoire is a huge limestone bar near Aix en Provence. The climbing is mainly on compact, platy limestone. Friction and small drip holes require good foot technique.
From single pitches to sporty multi-pitch climbs to hour-long tours up the massif, everything is on offer. The protection varies from good to sparse. The distances between the bolts often increase in length towards the top. Runouts of 5m and more are not uncommon. Good color photos, site plans and the bilingual chapter with all the necessary information make this guide indispensable for this fantastic area!
