Infos & Booking
Description
I'm offering you an unforgettable multi pitch climbing stay in Corsica.
During these 10 days, we'll be touring the island to visit as many cliffs as possible, from the ryolite of Paglia Orba to Capu d'Ortu, via the granite of Tavignano and Restonica, not forgetting the incredible lacework of Bavella taffones where we'll be sure to get our cams stuffed!
10 days of great traditional routes, and a few must-dos on bolts.
10 days of finger-polishing and eye-popping.
10 days for a magnificent combo of sea and mountains, alone in the world before the summer rush.
Corsica welcomes us for this springtime tour, with its stacked pitches, some of which are among the most beautiful in the world.
We'll be two mountain guides, well-knowing Corsica and gourmets of vertical pleasures, to accompany you.
With our 9-seater van and all our toys inside, all you have to do is let us guide you. We anticipate a maximum of 2 to 3 clients per guide, with the possibility of having two autonomous persons depending on level.
If you can't make the whole trip, you can pay pro rata for part of it.
If you'd like to climb in other exceptional places, I also offer:
- a climbing course in the Calanques of Marseille and Cassis,
- a stay dedicated to multi pitch route climbing in Meteora, Greece,
- a multi pitch route climbing course in Ailefroide,
- and a 3 days of climbing in the Verdon gorges.
Program
D1: Morning meeting in Ajaccio.
D1 to D10: Multi pitch routes climbing.
The program is defined day by day according to our desires and current conditions. The idea being pleasure and discovery, we'll be moving around. We can also spend a long time in the valley of our choice, if the place appeals to us. In any case, we'll be spending more time in the Bavella sector.
We'll start with a tour above Ajaccio, on the faces of Gozzi or Monte Latu. Then head north to Capu d'Ortu, Aitone or Tavulu. The Paglia Orba, even further north, will be a real change of scenery, with a night or two at the Ciutullu di Mori refuge. Of course, we'll also pay a visit to the lakes of Capitello, Restonica and Tavignano. And then we'll head down to Bavella, where we'll probably regret not having enough time or not being strong enough to cover all the local gems!
We'll be travelling in a 9-seater bus, so we can cram all our gear into it.
Accommodation will be in campsites and refuges for maximum freedom and reduced costs. Beach and sea will also be our must for rest days.
Your days will be filled with activities to suit your level, your desire and your stamina! You can climb until you're tired, but you'll still enjoy being in this magical place and sharing these beautiful moments.
