Infos & BookingDescription
Do you feel cramped at the foot of the cliffs and dream of seeing what is happening higher up?
Half-day multi-pitch climbing is the perfect format to introduce you to multi-pitch routes without spending the entire day. You will experience a condensed vertical journey, perfect for discovering the sensations of height above the lakes of Annecy or Le Bourget.
The objective of this session is to give you the experience of climbing being rope up: leave the ground, complete 3 or 4 pitches of climbing (i.e. approximately 100 to 150 meters of cliff) and organize a relay suspended between sky and earth. Whether you are a curious indoor climber or a regular at single-pitch climbing, I will take you on affordable routes where the pleasure of the view and the fluidity of movement take precedence over pure difficulty. This will be an opportunity to take advantage of a suspended break to gain height, in complete serenity.
To continue the adventure, I suggest we head out together for a day of multi-pitch climbing in Savoie Mont Blanc. You could also opt for a climbing day in Annecy or Aix-les-Bains, or an introduction to traditional climbing in the Savoie region.
