Description Suggest change

A very impressive limestone vertical wall.
You abseil from the top and you stop middle way, when the wall starts to be unclimbable. During your whole ascent you will have the big-air atmosphere taking you !

Getting There Suggest change

Exit La Palud sur Verdon, in direction of Castellane (not Moustiers), and at the bifurcation veer toward Route des Crêtes. Park at the third belevedere, Belvédère de la Carelle.

From there walk 3 minutes uphill, until you see red signs indication Rivière d'...

Signs lead to a cairn, where you'll have to climb down 3 meters. There you are.  The rappels need two ropes 3x ~50m rappels.
