Description

The Verdon Gorge is among the most beautiful in Europe and it is the perfect spot for this fun climbing adventure! There are over 2500 climbing routes on its limestone walls. And having so many options, there will surely be one that’s perfect for you.

Located in Provence, this gigantic gorge is a rock climbing mecca. It is considered to be the second largest after the Grand Canyon and it is lined by the beautiful turquoise Verdon river. Its cracks, pillars, and giant walls make it a favorite among rock climbers, and for good reason, and there are routes for all levels.

The program we will follow will be adapted to your level. We will make sure that you are comfortable and safe at all times so that you can truly enjoy the beautiful location and amazing climbing options.  Whichever your level or preference, you are sure to be stunned by the quality of the rock, the breathtaking views, and the stunning surroundings.

We will meet at La Palud sur Verdon, a mountain village nestled in the Verdon Natural Regional Park. The trip will take at least 2 days. But if you want to make it longer, we can make the necessary arrangements!

So, are you ready to go climbing in Verdon? Then send a request and we will help you organize an unforgettable adventure.

I am a boulderer, and I am looking for some guided climbs to learn ropes. Is it something you can help me with?

About the guide

My love for climbing was born from growing up in the Rocky Mountains of the United States. My parents took me climbing as a young child, instilling in me a passion for the sport. It was this passion that brought me to France in 2017: a thirst to explore the legendary cliffs of Provence, the birthplace of sport climbing, and home to the towering multi pitch walls of the Verdon Gorge. As a climbing guide, I hope to impart to my clients not only safe climbing techniques, but also an appreciation of these magnificent outdoor cathedrals as well as a love of vertical movement in all its forms.

The whole process has been very smooth considering how unstable the current situation is! Explore-share were in contact proactively ready to assist if I needed them and the team behind the guide were also very helpful. The climbing was very beautiful and the guide knew his stuff, the route was well picked and I was absolutely shattered by the end! Would recommend climbing in Verdon to anyone interested.
