view of mount orpierre

We are based in the beautiful medieval village of Orpierre - this is about 11/2 hours from Marseille and  just over 2 hours from Nice and Nimes, also about 3 hrs from Geneva, for all those cheap flights.

On the doorstep the crag has in excess of 200 routes which we can introduce you to climbing, hope fully on one of the 300 plus days of sunshine per year. Also within an hours drive there are the crags of Ceuse and St Leger. Locally there are a number of Via Ferratas which provide fun in very exposed situations and we can take you along one of those in safety.

There are also winter options combining Ice climbing, Snow Shoeing and rock - climbing.

We have our base here, where we can arrange accommodation for you in Gites adjacent to our base, or there is an excellent campsite, or hotel depending on your preference. Equipment can be provided.

So Holidays in this beautiful region tasting walking, climbing and Via Farratas can easily be arranged.

If you wish to progress to higher grades we provide a coaching service, to extend you to your limit and beyond.

We have organised multi activity weeks for schools, introduced individuals to sports climbing and managed British Junior Competition Team training weeks, all around this area.
