Description

I propose a 3-day climbing course in the Provence part of the Drôme department to learn to climb more serenely, to manage the falls and to know your limits.

This course takes place in the Baronnies, at the foot of the majestic Mont Ventoux. This region has many climbing sites, all located in bucolic environments and surrounded by beautiful scenery.

You will climb on the site of Chavoul, located above the river Gour des Oules and recently bolted by me. This cliff, close to the beautiful village of Montbrun-les-Bains, is not very frequented and offers a rock with a welcome grip. An initiation sector (slab and cracks) and another one with more difficult routes (wall with holes, overhangs, dihedral, etc.) allow everyone to find routes at their level and to work on more ambitious objectives.

If you want to evolve and progress even more in your climbing practice, why not combine it with yoga during a course, still in the Baronnies or in Die region? Or choose the same climbing course but with a duration of 4 days.

You can also try to climb a multi pitch route on Saint-Julien rock above Buis-les-Baronnies.
