Bleau.info : Mare aux Corneilles : Topo

thanks to Thierry Guéguen & Frédéric Buc

This small area, located near Le Rocher de la Combe, has been exploited recently and proposes about 30 problems (from 3b to 7c). From Le Carrefour de l'Obélisque at Fontainebleau, follow the N152 for 5km600 in direction of Ury, turn right at Le Carrefour de la Croix de Souvray and park the car 500m further along La Route Ronde at the next crossing, near La Mare aux Corneilles. The main sector is 700m from the parking lot : follow La Route de la Mare aux Corneilles and turn right at a small path after the crossing, instead of going down. A first big boulder appears on the left at the end of the plateau.
