Description

I’m happy to invite you to live an unforgettable 6 day trip in Cerces and Ecrins. Both are great rock climbing spots to practice some multi-pitch rock climbing and improve your safety skills.

Rock climbing in Cerces is technical and varied because the limestone there is quite compact and well protected. The approach walks can be significant, reinforcing the alpine character of the site. On the other side, rock climbing in Ecrins is on an alpine granite with compact slabs and cracks, where the equipment is not always complete.

During these 6 days I will teach you the main top rope climbing techniques on different rock types in the beautiful limestone mountains of Cerces and the granite of the Ecrins. You will also learn:
– Climbing techniques with very varied styles.
– Safety techniques.
– Progression techniques specific for multi-pitch routes as how to build an anchor and manage a safety abseiling.
– How to feel confident on equipped multi-pitch routes and on trad.
– Self rescue and rescue techniques.

All participants must have a 5b technical level. That means that previous rock climbing experience is needed as well as a good physical condition.

Come climb with me to Cerces and Briançon and learn while enjoying a unique trip. Click on the green button and make your reservation now. It’ll be my pleasure to be your guide!

Very nice trip. The via ferrate was not very difficult. We could finish it in about 1hour and a half. The remaining time we did another (small, slightly more difficult) via ferrata and some climbing. Great guide.

Pont-à-Lesse via ferrata is gorgeous, and Willy is the best guide one can wish for: very knowledgeable and calm. This was my very first ferrata, and Willy helped me feel and be safe. Many thanks!

Such a great way to experience climbing in another country/area! Ivan was my climbing guide and he was super knowledgable and supportive. We went through warm ups, stretches, and best falling practices before we began. I'm an intermediate climber and I learned a lot and felt very safe! He even showed me exercises that could help improve my technique. I'm super grateful I booked through explore-share and plan to do so again when I'm traveling!

We had a great day with Leo. He drove us to a spot with many problems from easy to hard. He was super supportive and positive and gave excellent coaching and climbing advice. He didn't just give beta but really worked with us on the subtle techniques necessary at Fontainebleau.

Petit couac pendant l'organisation, mais tout est rentré dans l'ordre et c'est très bien passé au final
