Description

An amazing and unique 5-day course to explore one of the most beautiful climbing sites in Europe: the Calanques massif. Behind the Marseilleveyre mount these small, narrow, elongated bays lie. They are surrounded by stony peaks and turquoise blue waters.

The Calanques cover the rocky coast from Marseille to Cassis and it is usually considered “a playground” for all levels of climbers. This time I want to invite you to sail the waters and find wild rock walls, according to your level. The catamaran will allow us to enjoy the idyllic atmosphere of the site and explore the most remote sides of the creeks!

This 5-day program in the Calanques will be designed depending on the experience and expectations of participants. From beginners to experts I can offer a custom trip and make you improve or learn the most important safety and progression techniques. In addition, we’ll also practice:
– Lead climbing,
– Rope climbing,
– Relaying,
– Abseiling,
– Rescue and self rescue techniques,
– Sport, long and multi-pitch route climbing with overhead crossings over the sea.

As for the requirements, all participants must prove a regular rock climbing practice and elementary experience on the cliffs.

Now, send me a request to book your trip. I’ll be waiting for you and the Calanques will too!

What people are saying about Explore-Share

Man

Climbing with guide Guillaume was absolutely a highlight of my 2-week Europe vacation. Originally, we were planning on climbing in the Calanques, but the park was closed due to wind and fire danger. Guillaume chose another amazing location (Pic de Bretagne) based on my climbing abilities and preferences and kindly offered train station pick-up and hotel drop off, which I appreciated very much. The multi-pitch route we did was not only fun but also the right amount of challenge, which I thoroughly enjoyed. The communication from the team (Gauthier) was prompt and clear—highly recommend!

Maxine

Luis Silva was a great climbing guide and belayer! He taught me how to do moves that were difficult and encouraged me to try routes that were challenging for me! Because of his encouragement, I managed to complete these routes! I really enjoyed the climbs and completed 8 routes in the Sesimbra/Azoia area. The weather was perfect, no direct sun and cool enough to enjoy the climbs. Explore-Share made booking an outdoor climbing experience in Lisbon extremely easy. Luis, our guide, was fantastic, and the platform’s organization was flawless.

We had Léo as a guide for our day climb in Fonty. We were blessed with a knowledgeable, warm, and instructive guide. Communication with Léo and Ivan was smooth and swift. Explore-Share was excellent in arranging everything for our day climb. The communication was quick, and the platform was easy to use, making our adventure stress-free.

Patrick was a great guide. He took us on an intermediate Via Ferrata at Passo Sella. Renato was quick to respond with any outreach on the Explore-Share platform. The booking process was straightforward, and once Patrick was confirmed, all went well. It was a wonderful experience, and I’d highly recommend the platform.
