If you google for directions to font plenty of info wil come up, though, and I think it's user "Booger" that has links to e-guidebooks in her profile.

In reply to: out of interest though what train and what bus?? where exactement is font??
Bleau is south of Paris. If you don't have a car the best way is to take your bike and crash pad on the train (usually from Gare de l'Est). Get off one or two stops before Fontainebleau. Then you'll have to bike 15-45 minutes to get to sites like Rocher Canon, Apremont...
Bring a map of the forest otherwise you wont find anything.
The best season for Bleau-climbing is just starting
