What To Expect
Discover the Calanques by climbing. The Calanques National Natural Park offers many sites and climbing routes. It has been a historic climbing spot since the 1970s. Discover the paradise of this region in a unique atmosphere with the Mediterranean Sea as a backdrop. Thanks to the diversity of climbing sites surrounding the massif of the Calanques de Marseille, Cassis and La Ciotat we offer you areas adapted to your physical level (from beginner to expert). Even in the middle of winter, you can climb warmly away from our prevailing wind: the Mistral. You will be able to evolve in pairs under the tutelage of a State Patent Escalade instructor. Specialist in climbing in Provence with more than 37 years of practice and more than 27 years of professional supervision, I am a passionate and a lover of Calanques and Provence and I will do my utmost to meet your expectations.
