I fell in love with rock climbing in 2009. The beauty of the outdoor scenery and the challenge against gravity made me addicted to climbing. After a career as an IT engineer, I became an indoor climbing instructor in 2018. I was a coach in Paris for every type of person (beginners, competitors, kids, mountaineers mentally handicapped people, disabled people, etc). Since 2022, I have been a rock climbing instructor in the south of France. I'm really to guide people in the beautiful Calanques national park, Verdon's gorge, Orpierre, Cassis, etc. You'll like the fantastic feeling of the zipline above a blue lagoon in the via cordata "Bec de Sormiou", or climbing on the multi-pitch of the beautiful Calanques of En Vau. Please find some of my offers or contact me if you have your own project. Let's make your dream happen together!

What people are saying about {{text}}

The National Park of Les Calanques is probably my favourite place to go rock climbing. This 25-km coastline between Marseille, Cassis and Ciotat is a paradise for rock climbers.

I enjoy very much climbing with my friends and clients here because the weather is very often fantastic (even during the winter), the views on the sea are breathtaking and there is a wide choice of climbing routes.

We can go rock climbing together for one or several days. I can take with with me beginners, looking to get the basics, as well as experienced climbers, looking for the best climbing routes of the area.

The program will be adapted based on your wishes, your rock climbing level and the time you have here in Provence. Guide ratio is 4 for single-pitch routes and 2 for multi-pitch routes.

**If you are in the area and if you wish to experience some unique rock climbing, please send me a request and let’s go together on this fabulous limestone.**

To be defined together, based on the program and where you stay. 

Experience some of the best rock climbing in France by hiring Stéphane, an IFMGA mountain guide, for one or several days in Les Calanques de Marseille.

Marseille-Cassis, guided rock climbing in les Calanques

Whether sporting or leisure, climbing is above all an activity for leisure that combines sport, overcoming difficulties, concentration, techniques, and sharing. On these exciting half-day climbing days in Marseille, you will learn what you need to put some single-pitch skills to practice in a unique location.

Marseille boasts beautiful climbing sites, for all levels. Contemplating landscapes and disconnecting from the rest of the world makes climbing a popular form of sports meditation, and in this stunning location, it is well worth the effort. I invite you to discover this discipline. Whether you are a first-timer, a climbing enthusiast looking to advance your skills, or an advanced climber, I guarantee you an unforgettable moment in the enchanting setting of Marseille, Cassis, and La Ciotat.

Possible Climbing sites include:

*   **Baumettes Park to Morgiou:** a great climbing school for all levels, even for the very young, with no walking (but no sea view)
    
*   **South face of Goude's rock:** typical mountain, superb view of the islands, superb atmosphere(grades from 4a to 6c, 35mn approach)
    
*   **The perfumery towards Sormiou: s**uperb view of the islands (grades from 4b to 6b, 20mn approach)
    
*   **Harry Poter sector:** a dream site with a view overlooking the Calanque de Sormiou.
    
*   **Le Pouce à Sormiou:** an area on the heights of the magnificent Calanque de Sormiou (grades from 4c to 6b, 20mn approach)
    
*   **The Petit Saussois and the oasis:** 2 overlapping sectors overlooking the Calanque de Sormiou (grades from 3c to 6a, 20mn approach)
    
*   **The ouro:** the wild side of Sormiou, superb view of the islands (grades from 3a to 4b, 30mn approach)
    
*   **The coastal shelter in Morgiou:** an enchanting setting for an advanced outing (grades from 5a to 6c, 20mn approach)
    

I will select for you the most beautiful panoramic climbing sites with a turquoise seabed below, and a superb training site with direct access from the car park, in Marseille (Vers Morgiou). Children and total beginners are more than welcome. I can take care of your children and bring them back to the meeting point at the appointed time!

Please send your request if you would like to discover this exciting activity in the gorgeous crags of Marseille! I look forward to guiding you!
