Les Rangs de Mars

The Rangs de Mars site offers two sectors that are highly complementary in terms of difficulty and optimal climbing season. The “Neuf Lune” sector, with its exceptionally overhanging walls, offers an excellent playground for climbers seeking high difficulty. Unclimbable in winter due to humidity and spring seepage, its north-facing orientation and proximity to the river make it ideal in summer. The “Suzette Flipo and Ricky Banlieue” sector, on the other hand, features a vertical wall ranging from 15m to 20m in height, with routes ranging from accessible to moderate difficulty; its south-facing orientation makes it appealing during the mid-season and even on sunny winter days. This guidebook was produced in partnership with the CAF of Saoû Synclinal, which equips and maintains the area. The print guidebook “Climbing in the Drôme: Drôme Valley & Diois,” managed by the FFCAM 26 departmental committee, covers all the surrounding climbing areas.
