Escalade : grande voie "Aiguille noire de Tardevant"

アクセス

• Ask for information at the Tourism Office or refer to the guidebook to locate the different climbing areas.
  
  From La Clusaz, take the road that leads to Les Confins. Park in the parking lot at the end of the road. Take the wide hikers' trail for 10 minutes to "Paccaly d'en Bas" (a small hamlet). From there, take the trail called "Tour de la mouche" that leads for 15 minutes up the Paccaly coomb to a place called "Paccaly d'en Haut". Continue left towards the Tardevant coomb until you reach an intersection. At the intersection take the trail to the left that heads to the Grande Forclaz coomb. This will take 15 minutes. Head up the coomb towards the "Aiguille Noire de Tardevent", and after roughly 40 minutes head up to the base of the spire (another 10 minutes). Total approach time is 1.5 hours.
  
  Note: "Combe" in French means "coomb" in English, as well as "gully or small valley". The Aravis Mountains are made up of a series of "coombs", and are referred to on both the topographic map as well as in the guidebook.
