Access
Parking at "La Croix Verte", between La Frasse and Saint-Sigismond, at the crossroads for Ballancy. Access is by abseiling, then on foot if necessary.
For the Robin Hood route, access does not require abseiling: From Cluses in the direction of Sallanches, pass Conforama and Vive le Jardin. 100 m further on, turn left onto a carriage road which leads back in the direction of Cluses (park by the roadside). Follow the road for 200 m until you reach a junction, then follow the right-hand branch (old forestry road) until you enter the undergrowth. Leave the path and go up into the forest by pulling to the right until the foot of the cliff then cross to reach the foot of Robin Hood (35 minutes).
