Sports and leisure activities Chaudeyrolles

A few kilometres from the Ardèche river, between the Estables and the Chaudeyrolles, the La Roche Pointue, better known as the "Devil of the Devil", stands at an altitude of 1500 metres. Next to Mezenc and Alambre, the site offers 12 channels. It is ideal for beginners (rééquipé site in 2007), but the most experienced are their account. The view of the summit is impressive. Take care of weather (and night temperatures!), basaltic rock is often moist. For those who don't climb, the site is very pleasant for picnic. As for the name of the place, it is said that the devil would have planted his teeth in this part of Velay (look in the landscape around, there are two other "teeth").
