Description

Join me for a half-day, a full day, a weekend or even a week of rock climbing in the best climbing spots of Belgium. Most of them are located in the south of the country, in Wallonia. Some of the best rock climbing spots where we can go are:

I’ll organize a program according to your wishes, your technical level and what you want to learn. The trip can be from easy to sustained, from a half-day to several days long. We can go to only one of these destinations or explore various ones. I can take 4 to 8 people with me, depending on the program.

I can also design a program for more experienced climbers who want to discover the different walls of Wallonia and/or improve their current rock climbing skills. In that way I’ll help you become more autonomous, focusing on security and safety. We can also practice both traditional and aid climbing. Sport and multi-pitch routes are interesting options too.

Finally, I also organize via ferrata programs in Wallonia as well in many other amazing spots. Among them: Pont à Lesse (easy), Grands Malades (intermediate), Landelies (sustained).

Feel free to send me a request if you want to climb these amazing sites in Wallonia. It will be my great pleasure to guide you here and let you enjoy an amazing time in my beautiful country 😉

What people are saying about this trip

Victoria

A great morning climbing! Willy was knowledgeable, patient and encouraging

Alberto

Willy was a great instructor. He explained everything exahustively with real examples. Later, he checked how we were doing the maneuvers on our own. We got confidence to climb next day by ourselves using all the techniques he taught us. Apart from that, he was nice, funny and we even had a beer together. we hihgly recommend him.

Lois

Christophe is amazing, very accommodating, friendly, lots of local tips. We had a great day with him, learning to lead climb safely. Anybody looking to develop their climbing knowledge/ability, Christophe is your man.

Krisztina

We had a great experience with Willy Viez in Wallonie. He shared a lot of useful knowledge with us about alpine rock climbing, especially about lead climbing. His pointers and real life examples turned out to be essential on the following day when we tried to climb an easy route on our own (no quick draws were left behind). Willy assisted us in a way that resulted in great personal accomplishments for the day and he surely helped us to feel more at ease around real rocks. We are very happy with this adventure that has a long lasting after effect.

Lucilla

Nous avons eu une très chouette introduction à la via ferrata. Christophe a été MAGNIFIQUE pour sa patience, ses encouragements et ses conseils. Nous avons tous adoré.  !
