About Mancy:



The training cliff of Lons-le-Saunier, with almost 30 climbeable sport routes. Half of them under 5.10a. SOme under 8 meter high, others above 20 meters.
The limestone is sometimes very polished, and sometimes so grippy that you'll loose your skin and hurt your fingers.

Though very closed to this 20,000 people city, you have here a feeling of peace and tranquility. The cliff is always very sunny and can be practiced even in winter time. Don't climb in the Fleurs du Mal section, because the biotop is protected (well, it's so hidden that it's hard to find!).

Nearest town or city: Lons-le-Saunier
