Fontainebleau
It is the biggest and most developed bouldering area in the world.

French alpine climbers practiced bouldering there since the 19th century. It remains today a prime climbing location. |

Engineer, GUSTAVE EFFEL wrote:
"not only the art of the modern engineer, but also the century of Industry and Science in which we are living, and for which the way was prepared by the great scientific movement of the eighteenth century and by the Revolution of 1789, to which this monument will be built as an expression of France's gratitude."
