About Le Grand Morne:
|
In the region of the "asbestos" the Grand Morne was recently opened. It was kept secret for a while, but finally local climbers signed an agreement for five years. It's a nice place to trad or top rope, not many sport climbs. You can camp on the spot, at the summit. You need to walk to get to the camping. It's a 30 min uphill walk with all your stuff. But the walk is worth it. You have a very nice view of the whole region. Price for camping is 14$ a night or 8$ per person per night for the refuge.
