About St-Loup

The classic Vaudois Jura crag — a 1km-long south-west-facing limestone cliff above Pompaples in the Vallée de la Nozon, near Lausanne. This is one of the most historic Swiss sport venues: Fred Nicole climbed Bain de Sang here in 1993, the third 9a in the world, and Kryptography (9b) is the current testpiece. Grades run 3c to 9b across sectors including Guêpes, Papy, Échelle à poules and Sector A-E, with a strong Plaisir line-up developed by Marcel Demont. Rock is Jura limestone — the moderate classics are polished from decades of traffic. Some sectors close seasonally for bird nesting (typically February to June) — check the local notices at the parking. Vertical and slab sections stay wet in rain longer than steeper crags nearby, hence medium seepage.
