Description

Treat yourself to a wonderful adventure rock climbing adventure north of the Arctic Circle, in a paradise of the most beautiful jewels of Norwegian nature.

We will climb under the midnight sun in a breathtaking environment above the fjords of the Lofoten islands, on a rock with granite cracks more than 300 meters high.

It is possible to prepare for this trip before the departure with some initiation to climbing on cam, allowing to also know ropes handling, the conceptions of anchor and especially to learn climbing in full safety.

Departure possible in June / July only according to demand and weather conditions.

If you're looking for new horizons, I also offer a climbing stay in the Sultanate of Oman. You can also progress in traditional climbing by opting for these 3 days of trad climbing in Annot in the Alpes-de-Haute-Provence, or even initiate yourself to aid climbing in Isère.
