The climbing is on compact sandstone and has two distinct sectors: the first is a long broken cliff-line with a boulder/top-rope circuit, after which comes the quarry sector with well bolted routes featuring many cracks and is a great venue for aspiring trad climbers to practice placing gear.
It is an all year climbing venue but Autumn and Spring are best for a fun day out cragging.
The story of climbing around Gueberschwihr started long ago with people quarrying the valuable sandstone for building material.
Access: Climbing has been restricted to the crags between the Parking and the sectors described in this topo. The crags beyond full under nature conservation and climbing is therefore not allowed!
Parking: Only park in valid parking and not private spaces, and park so as many vehicles can fit as possible.
Walk: Walk down the forest track to the crags/boulders.
