Anelles

verified Ungraded Unknown flood risk Ceret, Pyrenees-Orientales

A gneiss gorge above Ceret with three ways to run the crux drop: a straight 27 meter rappel, a shorter rappel plus jump, or a full 27 meter leap that RopeWiki's own trip notes describe with visible hesitation. Water runs year round, thin in summer and higher through spring snowmelt.

Two escapes exist, one just after the crux rappel and another past a narrower 5 meter chute further downstream. The same trip notes mention the big jump being done only once, by a visiting climber years back, and call it something to think twice about.
