Description

Marion des Roches
A beautiful hill with orange special sandstone boulders here and there. Most boulders are found on top of the hill, basically just next to the path (Visible on the map of the app!)
The area is still not fully developed, but features a ton of beautiful lines! On the map you'll find boulders with potential, already maybe climbed ones without info etc. If you climb these, please add lines and description and grades.

🍁 Season is all year around. North faces and some boulders on the north slope dries slowly, but a lot of the boulders are on top of the long hill and dries very quickly.

🧗 The area features more overhanging stuff than most areas in Fontainebleau. A lot of small caves and roofs can be found.

The rock quality is special even for Fontainebleau! Definitely worth a visit! 💎

📶 Reception is okay to absolutely super bad lower down, so downloading guide offline is highly recommendable. Usually up on the hill you can have a bit of reception.

In general very family friendly and a lot of small cute boulders for smaller kids to play around on. But not optimal for a stroller.

Marion des Roches

Climbing has been limited!

The forests of Fontainebleau, Trois Pignons and Commanderie remain closed to the public until further notice. The entire forest remains very vulnerable to fire risk.

We urge everyone to act responsibly and to be patient: do not enter the forest, do not go to the burned areas, and ensure that access routes for emergency vehicles remain clear.

How to get there?
🚗 9 min/ 9 km from Fontainebleau. At the roundabout with the Obelisque, take the D58 towards Bourron-Marlotte. Drive straight not turning to Bourron-Marlotte. Road changes name to D148. Stick to this road until a long straight, and park just before the curves, or just after. Shorter approach if you park after the curves (South side!)

🅿️ Parking north of the curves
🅿️ Parking south of the curves

🚶The walk is fairly short, most boulders reachable within 10-15 minutes
