Going to be in Paris for a few days in the first week of March. Just wondering if there's anywhere good to boulder either in a gym or really close to the city.
anyone have any ideas?
Thanks,
BS

Heard of it. Don't know much about it. Mainly 'cause I ain't a real honest to goodness hardcore boulderer guy. I'm just a lowly trad climber.
How far is it from Paris?
I've heard it's 50 or sixty miles away. I only have evenings while I'm there, so I was kinda looking for somewhere easy to go at night.

not far, don 't know exactly, certainly not 50 miles, though it might be 50 miles across

Antrebloc of Paris
CEE Thiais of Paris
Mur-Mur Pantin of Paris ...
Go check the route DB, all the major indoor gyms of the area of Paris are there...
Antrebloc et Mur-Mur have the best bouldering caves.

go to the bleau:

if you only have evenings... drive fast, bring a headlamp, and have a great time.
