Description

Do you have some climbing experience and want to improve your skills?
Do you climb indoors from time to time and would like to discover climbing in a natural environment?
Then these advanced rock climbing outings in the Eastern-Pyrenees are for you!

For greater comfort and a friendly atmosphere, the outing is limited to small groups of 8 people maximum.

The cliff where you will be climbing will be chosen according to the time of year and the weather.
You will have the opportunity to climb at one of my favorite climbing sites:

  • Tautavel: located half an hour drive northwest of Perpignan, this village is known for its prehistoric remains. But there are also magnificent limestone cliffs, in a magnificent environment, on which are traced climbing routes of all levels and up to 40 meters high. You will find all types of profiles: vertical, slab, overhangs, etc.
  • Vingrau: close to Tautavel, Vingrau offers a beautiful and immense limestone cliff of more than two kilometers long and rising above a magnificent landscape of vineyards. The climbing is often on slabs or walls, along hundreds of routes of all levels and up to 120 meters high.
  • Casteil: at the foot of the Canigou (an hour's drive east of Perpignan), this site offers a pleasant climbing experience in a bucolic setting on the river bank. About thirty routes (from 4 to 6, up to 60 meters high) are traced on an excellent granite, sheltered from the Tramontane. You can practice crack climbing here.

If you are new to climbing, I recommend this introductory climbing session around Perpignan.

And if you enjoy climbing and would like to take it further, I offer several outings and courses in the Eastern-Pyrenees that will help you progress: climbing sessions for adults, a course to help you become autonomous when climbing outdoors, and another course to help you overcome your fear of falling when climbing.
