Bleau Blocs : 100 of the finest boulder problems in the Fontainebleau forest

A visual celebration of one of the world's most unique and vast bouldering venues, featuring 100 of the finest problems in the legendary Fontainebleau forest.

Stéphan Denys is the eye of the Fontainebleau forest. Having spent nearly forty years as a photographer and climber roaming every inch of the rocky landscape, he has developed a special bond with these sandstone giants and their unique shapes: sometimes round and bumpy, sometimes sharp and angular, but always fascinating. His stunning photos span a range of eras and are accompanied by texts that expand on the context and characteristics of each boulder problem, with a preface by Olivier Lebreton.

The 100 striking problems are organized by sector—the National Forest, the Trois Pignons, Larchant and Nemours, followed by Buthiers and l'Essonne. Through this carefully curated selection, Denys shares his vision of bouldering in Fontainebleau and invites us to consider the boulders more deeply from all their angles. An inspiring book for all climbers, whatever their level!
