If you are looking for a beautiful and easy rock climbing destination in Wallonia, Belgium, Durnal is your choice! This place is perfect for beginners, and even apt for families with children. Join me and let's spend a fantastic day on the sandstone cliffs!
I can adjust the program to your level, there are options ranging from easy to sustained. We will practice single-pitch climbing.
Located in a forest region between Namur and Dinant, Durnal is an ancient pit in the bucolic Bocq valley. It is the only sandstone cliff that can be climbed in Belgium. We will climb mainly on slab, rails and small overhangs.
The small massif is ideal to try your first cliff since the equipment is abundant and regular.
I particularly enjoy guiding my friends and clients in Durnal because:
– The Bocq valley is magnificent. Nature and quiet are a guarantee!
– It's ideal for an initiation with friends and family.
– It's the only sandstone cliff that can be climbed in Wallonia.
In the same area, if you want to combine this program with others, I can also offer you a great rock climbing program at Yvoir.
Tempted to join me in Durnal for some fun rock climbing? Then make sure you send me a request to book this trip so we can start planning!

We had a really fantastic day of bouldering in Fontainebleau with our guide Ivan. He is very experienced and knows the region well. He showed us great boulders and routes that we would not have found on our own, and kept a good pace to keep us going for the full six hours.

We got a guide for backcountry skiing in Chamonix. The guide was excellent in fulfilling our wishes even though the viability was poor and snow layer thin. Our goals was to in a quiet nature area with not too many people. We ended up with 1000 meter gain and a ski through the forest over a 6 hour period. I was one of my best ski experiences.
