The Cohons cliff is located in a shaded former quarry. It is the most interesting cliff in Haute-Marne in terms of its size, height and choice of levels.
Height: 20 to 25 m
Facing: South
Number of routes: 50 routes
Grades: 4a to 8a (many routes in 5 and 6)
Accessible to children.
The names of the routes are indicated at the foot of the cliff. Most of the routes are equipped with pins sealed in resin, the belays are equipped with chains. A 50m rope and 10 quickdraws are all you need. The routes are descended by top-roping or abseiling.
Important information, following a prefectural decree:
From 1 January to 30 June, due to the nesting of protected rock species and by municipal decree, access to the cliff is only permitted on Wednesdays, Saturdays and Sundays from 1pm to 7pm. During this period, many routes are no longer accessible for climbing and our friends the dogs are not allowed.
Free access the rest of the year, except during hunting season.
