French Cottages "Gites" near Paris and Fontainebleau

The Fontainebleau forest is one of the most beautiful climbing sites in France and is also an internationally well-known site for bouldering.
The sandstones of Fontainebleau are famous for their low height and the strange forms of the rocks known by climbing amateurs.
Climbing at "Bleau" (nickname known from climbers) include different levels courses marked out according to difficulties: yellow (easy), orange (quite difficult), blue (difficult), red (very difficult) and black (for the bests).
The most well-known climbing sites are le Cuvier, les Gorges d'Apremont (Barbizon), les Gorges de Franchard (Fontainebleau et Arbonne-la-Foret), les Trois Pignons (Arbonne-la-Foret, Milly-la-Foret, Vaudoué), le Cul de Chien (Noisy-sur-Ecole), the rock of Dame Jouanne et l'Elephant (Larchant).
Our French Cottages are located in the south of Fontainebleau and are used to be the base of many climbers coming from different places.
We are glad to welcome them in our french cottages where they come to rest in order to be able to climb again rocks on the day after.
