Rocher du Trascastel
Saint-Jean-de-Buèges
Its exceptional setting and the good quality of its rock make Trascastel a site that is regularly visited throughout the year (a little less so in the summer during the hot weather). The presence of easy routes (discovery level) makes it accessible to groups (clubs and professionals) and to an amateur public. More demanding routes ("génération galère" sector) are a delight for experienced climbers.
