Bleau.info : Franchard Carriers : Topo

thanks to Manuel Marquès

Franchard Sablons Ouest is composed of several sectors : the difficult boulders of Voltane and http, the dynos of "Le Mur des Carriers" and the recent openings of Manuel Marquès and Jean-Jacques Naëls around the Pignon 110. To get to the first two sectors, follow the Route des Gorges de Franchard for 200m from Franchard Sablons and find the boulders in the slope. The access to the Pignon 110 is easier by following the GR11 on the crest.
