Description

Traditional climbing... this means placing your own protections also called nuts or friends to progress on the rock safely.

During this 4-day course, I propose you to climb small and long cracks on Annot's naturally carved sandstone rock, in a magical atmosphere in the heart of this magnificent and famous site located in the Alpes-de-Haute-Provence. You will discover and learn how to place your own protections and thus you will become autonomous on unbolted cliffs.
