3-day rock climbing course in Les Calanques and Sainte Victoire

I invite you to join me in this rock climbing course around the impressive Calanques of the Mediterranean, a must to anyone visiting the South of France. I can take you climbing in the Calanques and Sainte Victoire. 

I organize long-weekend tours, from Thursday evening to Sunday evening, where you can decide the itinerary, based on your climbing skills –from beginner to advanced– or the places you want to visit. This trip is for private groups and it will be tailored to your wishes.

This tour can be made around Calanques of Cassis, Buoux or Sainte Victoire mountain, all near Marseille.

These cliffs are a series of impressive white limestone rocks that stand upon deep valleys. They form part of a rare ecosystem, with colourful fishing villages and peaceful creeks with intense and clear water.

We will have a picnic for lunch, and enjoy dinner in small friendly restaurants, most of them in fishing villages.

In Marseille, the Calanques extend for almost 20 km along the coast between up to Cassis. The highest peaks in this mountain range are the Marseilleveyre (432 meters high) and Mont Puget (565 meters high). Here might traverse the “Sentier du Petit Prince”, a hiking trail called after The Little Prince, the classic children’s book by Antoine de Saint Exupéry. There are many possible routes like Saména, Callelongue, Morgiou, Sugiton… Depending on the level of the group we will decide the itinerary.

Or, you can choose to climb around the Sainte Victoire mountain, in Provence, a large mass with high white cliffs.

Finally, another option is Buoux, “The Laboratory”, a site near the Buoux village, in Provence. It offers more than 500 routes in its 90 meters walls of limestone-coated sandstone.

Either option will make for an unforgettable journey. Please contact me to arrange the details of your trip!
