Fontainebleau bouldering half-day guided experience

It is possible to rent crash pads. There are several options available for renting crash pads in the Fontainebleau area. You can find them at the climbing gym called "Karma", at the sports store "S'Cape Fontainebleau", as well as the climbing gym "Le Rempart" in Vert-Saint-Denis.

If the climbing instructor determines the weather conditions are not suitable for safe climbing, we can explore the possibility of rescheduling our day. This alternative will depend on both your availability and ours. Another option could be to go indoor climbing at one of the gyms in Paris or the climbing gym in Fontainebleau, with the understanding that you would be responsible for the entrance fee (both yours and the one for the climbing instructor). If none of these alternatives are feasible for you, a refund will be provided.

Remember to bring your climbing shoes and wear appropriate attire based on the weather forecast. It's also recommended to bring water and food/snacks for the duration of the bouldering session. The climbing instructor will take care of providing the crash pads and chalk for your climbing experience.

If you don't have climbing shoes with you, no worries! "Karma" climbing gym, located just a short 2-minute drive from the train station, offers rental climbing shoes. We can head there before starting the bouldering session to ensure you have the necessary equipment.

Children are more than welcome to participate in bouldering activities in Fontainebleau. The climbing instructor will consider their climbing level, ages, and preferences when selecting the boulders they will climb. The climbing instructors from the team have a great passion for instructing kids and ensuring they have an enjoyable experience.

If you choose to arrive by train, the guide can arrange to meet at either the Fontainebleau-Avon or Bois-le-Roi train stations. These stations are approximately 30 minutes away from Paris' "Gare de Lyon".

Alternatively, if you are arriving by car, the meeting point will be arranged near the bouldering spot. The specific location which will be chosen will take into account factors such as your climbing experience, the objectives you have for the bouldering experience together, weather conditions, temperatures, and whether you have a car.

You can join a group for a ½-day bouldering tour!

These tours usually take place on Sundays at 10am. Check the JOIN A GROUP section for upcoming group dates.

Group Size:

• Minimum climbers: 2 (for a guaranteed departure)

• Maximum climbers: 4

Please note, the tour will be canceled if the minimum number of participants is not reached two days prior to the scheduled date. In such cases, you can choose to convert your booking to a private session, postpone to another group date, or receive a refund.

Price: €150 per person (includes the guiding fee, crash pads, and chalk).

Meeting Point: Bois le Roi Train Station (approximately 30 minutes from Paris' Gare de Lyon). Please note that the guide cannot wait more than 10 minutes for late arrivals to ensure a quality experience for those on time. The guide will depart with participants who arrive punctually, and unfortunately, latecomers will not be able to join. We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause and appreciate your understanding.

Certainly! You can find all the details for the day tour at the following link: https://www.explore-share.com/trip/1-day-guided-bouldering-in-fontainebleau-paris/. During the half-day tour, you will be bouldering for approximately 3 hours, while the full-day tour will offer a duration of 6 hours. If you're interested, we can also discuss the possibility of planning a multi-day bouldering tour tailored to your preferences.

If you choose to travel by train, you have two options for stations: "Fontainebleau-Avon" or "Bois-le-Roi." The selection of the station will depend on the specific bouldering area the climbing instructor will choose for your tour. The train ride from Paris Gare de Lyon to either station takes approximately 30 minutes. The climbing instructor will be there to pick you up upon your arrival.

Alternatively, if you prefer to travel by car, it is a more straightforward option as we can arrange a meeting point directly at the designated bouldering spot for your half-day tour.
