Carpark location and southern crags
From La Grande Rue, take Routes des Coutures and follow as it turns into Saint’s Road, then take a right into Icart Road and follow it all the way to the end where it ends in a large car park. From La Rue Maze, take Longue Rue and take a right to join Routes des Coutures and follow as before. After parking at Icart Car Park (with the tea rooms adjacent), take the cliff path east as shown above. Follow the path round until you are above the coupee area. Head down to the coupee, but before getting to the edge head rightwards (west) towards the top of an the West Wall outcrop
