So you've just pitched up and fancy a bit of gentle climbing to get used to the rock with a good mix of routes, one of the crags to try with an easy drive and no walk-in is Les collets.  It is at an altitude of 1050m above the town of L'Argentiere-La-Bessee.  Grades range from 3+ to 6c with a good selection of routes on vertical walls and slabs.

  From memory the climbs in view are as follows; 1st rope 5c - Le mystere de la grande pyramide, 2nd rope 5b - L'epervier, climbers in the distance 5b - La pierre d'Henry.

Basic directions to the crag from Vallouise enter L'Argentiere-La-Bessee and turn right at the main cross roads, possible signed Fournel, (turning left takes you towards the RN94).  Cross the railway line and head up the hill, after a big hairpin and as the road becomes straight take a small road/track down left to the parking and crag.

Also accessible from the crag is a Via-Ferrata L'Horloge, this is an easy route with a summit of 1000m and an opportunity to visit the chapel.  There is 50m of Via-Ferrata which can take between 20-35minutes and then there is about 1hour of walking.  During the decent there is a 10m section which is equipped with cables.
