Ablon, rock climbing in France
Ablon is located in a marvellous uncontaminated corner of the Franch Alps at 1400m and boasts more than 250 routes on extremely compact grey limestone.

The marvellous French limestone crag Ablon.
Ablon is an enchanting valley situated at 1400m on the Plateau des Glières in the France's Upper Savoy which conceals a small gem surrounded by forests, lush alpine meadows, grazing cows and a picturesque alpine hut where you can eat and drink. The crag, equipped primarily by Robert Durieux is truly memorable just like the routes themselves: prepare for battles on long, delicate climbs which require excellent footwork and balance rather than brute strength and where the run-outs are, at times, "generous" to say the least.
