The Massif des Calanques is a wild and rugged terrain situated on the outskirts of Marseilles, France. Spanning 20km toward Cassis, it is one the most famous natural beauties in the country and an essential destination for rock climbing lovers. In this trip I propose you to climb its best advanced routes under my expert guidance.
Les Calanques is divided into six main areas and offers a total of 2500 bolted routes and more than 1000 traditional routes. The style of the climbing spots is varied: technical slabs, steep overhangs in caves, multi-pitch and single pitches routes on the sea’s edge.
In this outing we are going directly to the routes for advanced rock climbers. I can take you to some classics routes of Calanques, such as The Future Croulants or Calanque of Eissadon. Other options can be Bora Bora, an exceptional spot with panoramic views from Luminy to Cap Canaille, and Traversée Sans Retour (“Crossing without return” in French), an amazing 5-hours route.
The limestone massif of Les Calanques is marked by the impressive crystal blue waters of the French Mediterranean. Upon on the rocks you will enjoy breathtaking views of a unique natural beauty.
So, if you want to climb the beautiful limestone rocks of Les Calanques and enjoy its beautiful landscape, contact me! I’m sure you are going to have an unforgettable adventure.
Anf if you are not an advanced climber, don’t worry! You should check out my Les Calanques rock climbing day tours for beginners.

We had a great time bouldering with Léo who was really enthusiastic and encouraging, and who selected a good range of boulders to suit our different strengths whilst still being challenging. Would definitely recommend this as a great way to get introduced to outdoor bouldering at Fontainebleau.

Willy was a brilliant instructor and guide. He took us on the Pont a Lesse beginners via ferrata, then onto a slightly harder section, and finally a short top-roped climb. We climbed with our 10 and 12 year olds and he was brilliant and making sure they followed all the safety rules, gave them good advice and on a particularly tricky vertical section, used a top rope for extra security. He was really encouraging and great company. He communicated well beforehand and his English was excellent. He also used to be a photographer before he became a climbing instructor, and he took some fabulous photos which he shared with us afterwards. We had a fantastic time and I would definitely recommend going on a trip with him.
Denis
Willy est un très bon guide. Il nous a conseillé une via ferrata plus compliquée et mieux adaptée à notre niveau avant le départ, ce qui était bien vu de sa part. Il nous a guidé sans nous tenir par la main afin de nous laisser notre autonomie et a prit plein de photos de notre ascension.

Ivan was aan excellent guide. He was incredibly knowledgeable about the area, very friendly and approachable. He tailored the day to our experience and gave us loads of great tips to increase our enjoyment and improve our skills. I would highly recommend a day's bouldering with Ivan.
Stay up-to-date on the best adventures.
