Description

I propose you to live a unique experience by coming to spend an incredible and unforgettable night, suspended under the sky of the Hautes-Alpes!

After a climbing route or a vertiginous hike, we will stop on a comfortable ledge to spend the evening and have dinner far above the ground.

Then you will settle down on your two-seater portalegde* for a night out of the ordinary, before enjoying a coffee in the morning, in front of the sunrise, with your feet in the air!

* The portaledge is a folding and very comfortable platform for bivouac that climbers use during climbs lasting several days. Comfortable, flat, light, it's a hotel where you can't count the stars. During the night, you will always be attached and connected to the cliff for a total safety.

If you feel like other vertical aventures in the Hautes-Alpes department, why not follow me in the via ferrata of the gorges of Ailefroide in Pelvoux?

Program

D1: Easy climb et hike, then evening and night on a cliff.
Meeting in the late afternoon, or before depending on the choice of access (easy climbing route or hike).
After climbing a few easy pitches, or a path requiring the rope if you are not a climber, we will land on a clear sky ledge for a well deserved dinner.
Then we will install together your two-seater portaledge above the wall, for a magic sunset and night.

In the morning, you will have a coffee and a croissant whenever you want, facing the sunrise, with feet in the air!
