Climbing in the Vercors

From climbing school to multi-pitch routes, including the via corda, on the Vercors limestone, led in small groups.

Climbing in the Vercors

The Vercors limestone offers a varied playground, from beginner-friendly crags to committing multi-pitch routes. Our qualified instructors tailor the day to your level and wishes: first steps at the climbing school, airy sensations on the via corda, or a full multi-pitch outing on the massif’s finest sectors. The technical equipment (helmet, harness, climbing shoes, ropes) is provided. For any specific request, contact us.

For the Trois Pucelles course, we offer the full-day option so you can make the most of this exceptional site, in the spirit of a “short mountain outing”.
