We offer this trip, allowing you to craft the itinerary based on your desires and the time you want to stay. So, we can explore this area in just one day, taking you to the best rock climbing spots. Or, we could climb for as long as you wish.
Avignon, in the Loire Valley, is the perfect location for this adventure. This rock climbing paradise offers more than 50 different crags with superb rock quality. We’ll usually find these crags spread out and relatively small, in quiet places ideal to concentrate on your techniques and to enjoy the surroundings. Most of the routes are single pitch. And the majority of the walls are limestone. But we’ll also find an excellent mixture of grades. Therefore, there are options for everyone here!
Moreover, unlike other rock climbing destinations in Europe, the weather here is amazing! It is mostly sunny and warm. Thus, offering incredible ascents all year round, with the most hypnotizing views of the area.
Some of the places we can explore on this journey include:
Aiguillette Lagarde-Turc
Baume Rousse
Bellecombe
Clapis Face
Combe Obscure
Corneirette
Gorges De La Nesque
Grand Travers
Lou Passo
Rocher du Groseau (Malaucene)
Saint Christophe
Trois Rivieres
Ubrieux
Venasque
But the options are endless. So if you wish to take part of this incredible journey, simply send us a request. Let one of our certified guides have the pleasure of taking you to this marvellous place in France.
If you want a different type of adventure, we also offer this 4-day hut to hut hiking tour in Vanoise.

Climbing with guide Guillaume was absolutely a highlight of my 2-week Europe vacation. Originally, we were planning on climbing in the Calanques, but the park was closed due to wind and fire danger. Guillaume chose another amazing location (Pic de Bretagne) based on my climbing abilities and preferences and kindly offered train station pick-up and hotel drop off, which I appreciated very much. The multi-pitch route we did was not only fun but also the right amount of challenge, which I thoroughly enjoyed. The communication from the team (Gauthier) was prompt and clear—highly recommend!

Luis Silva was a great climbing guide and belayer! He taught me how to do moves that were difficult and encouraged me to try routes that were challenging for me! Because of his encouragement, I managed to complete these routes! I really enjoyed the climbs and completed 8 routes in the Sesimbra/Azoia area. The weather was perfect, no direct sun and cool enough to enjoy the climbs. Explore-Share made booking an outdoor climbing experience in Lisbon extremely easy. Luis, our guide, was fantastic, and the platform’s organization was flawless.

We had Léo as a guide for our day climb in Fonty. We were blessed with a knowledgeable, warm, and instructive guide. Communication with Léo and Ivan was smooth and swift. Explore-Share was excellent in arranging everything for our day climb. The communication was quick, and the platform was easy to use, making our adventure stress-free.

Patrick was a great guide. He took us on an intermediate Via Ferrata at Passo Sella. Renato was quick to respond with any outreach on the Explore-Share platform. The booking process was straightforward, and once Patrick was confirmed, all went well. It was a wonderful experience, and I’d highly recommend the platform.
