Description
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!

Fantastic experience, the instructor Willy is very knowledgeable and capable, recommended experience
Catriona
It was such a fun experience, as beginners in just a few hours we got some really helpful tips to improve our bouldering in general, as well as a great explanation on how to navigate the Fontainebleau maze and confidence to boulder outside independently in future. Ivan obviously really cares about protecting the rocks and the forest environment, his enthusiasm and volunteering his time sets such a good example. Also it was really kind to help us with a good walking trail for after the session and make sure we set off on the right way.
