Description

Located between Namur and Dinant, the Paradou rocks in Yvoir form an limestone massif at the Meuse valley. This is a great rock climbing destination in Wallonia, Belgium. It is an ideal massif for an initiation or to improve your skills in slab and multi-pitch routes climbing. In fact, the difficulty can vary between easy and sustained, depending on your level. We can practice single- and multi-pitch climbing here.

There is a fantastic large slab, 60 meters high, called "L'Impériale". It is right next to a beautiful isolated needle, from which we can descend abseiling. The climb is essentially on slabs, on reglets and holes. But there are also dihedrals, ridges and overhanging routes.

The main reasons why I enjoy guiding my friends and clients here are:
– Magnificent limestone slabs with great views over the Meuse valley
– Ideal for an initiation or to train climbing on slabs and multi-pitch routes
– Possible to mix sport routes and multi-pitch routes.

Another great rock climbing destination in the area of Namur is Beez, check it out! It's of course possible to combine both programs if you are coming for more than one day.

Tempted to join me in Yvoir for some fantastic rock climbing? Then please request to book this trip and we will meet soon! I am sure you will have the time of your life.

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.
