    One additonal very impotant thing: Don't climb on wet sandstone!
    After rainfall, take a break of at least 2 dasy to let the rock dry out. Sandstone is very fragile when wet, even when it looks like it dried from the outside

    Good tips!
    Start easy is definatly a good one, especialy for people who (mostly) climb indoor (like me).
    Most important tip clean shoes, respect the rocks, its sad how some of the boulders have been polished.
    Heading for Fontainebleau in two days, yeaaaaahaaaa.

    Some spots are badly affected by erosion. Sandy soil is very fragile. Stay on the tracks, avoid further digging the sand...

      @TheClimbingNomads  4 роки тому

      👍 yep, keeping the forest free from as much unnecessary erosion as possible :)

    I find it kind of sad that people need guides to climb natural rock. Maybe we should label trees as well?
