Because of the peat bog that makes up the plateau, and its landscape, botanical and faunal interest, the Arselle plateau is a natural area protected by an arrêté préfectoral de protection de biotope. The aim of this decree is to preserve the site and the plant and animal species present.
There are therefore a few rules to be observed to help protect the site: fire, wild camping, bivouacking, gathering and dumping waste are strictly forbidden. Please stay on the path that circles the area, as it is forbidden to go onto the plateau in order to preserve the fragile environments.
Approach to climbing site:
From the parking lot on the Arselle plateau, walk down in front of the terrace of the Salinière restaurant.
The rock is on the other side of the plateau. You are entering a sensitive natural area (ENS).
Do not cross the plateau on foot; you must go around the edge of the forest.
From the terrace, take the cross-country ski trail to the right, heading west until you reach the edge of the forest. Then take the Brimbelles trail to the left, heading south.
The track becomes a path that leads to the foot of a hump inhabited by tall spruce trees. The Rocher de l'Arselle (Arselle rock) is just behind, and you just need to go around the hump to the right, following a small path.
