The life-size climbing

ROCK’N WILD

Climbing trips, courses and expeditions (Rock), while promoting respect and discovery of nature (Wild), all in a rock'n roll spirit!

Rock’n Wild offers various formulas around climbing and verticality in the Verdon, but also much further afield, to meet the desires and profiles of as many people as possible. These formulas are systematically supervised by a professional instructor, knowledgeable about the area. Climbing outings, as well as courses, and even travels are thus offered. They allow you to practice climbing on single-pitch routes and multi-pitch routes. Without having been initiated into climbing, it is also possible to participate in vertical activities (dry canyons, via cordas, nights in portaledge…) which allow you to discover the cliffs and rocky environments of the Verdon and experience unique sensations...

Climbing outings

Full-day and half-day climbing outings allow you to be initiated, to perfect yourself on single-pitch and multi-pitch routes, or simply to enjoy and surpass yourself on the cliffs of the Verdon. Beginner or experienced, you will be accompanied by an instructor who will adapt to your expectations and allow you to make the most of your outing.

Vertical activities

Various vertical activities are offered in the Verdon. Without having necessarily been initiated into climbing, you can, through these few-hour activities, access the remote cliffs and rocky environments of the Verdon and experience the thrill of verticality, in complete safety. It will thus be possible for you to descend dry canyons, travel along via cordas (use of fixed ropes, abseils…) or spend a night in a portaledge (suspended from the wall)!

Climbing travels

Rock’n Wild prepares climbing trips, to take participants to assault single-pitch, multi-pitch and other distant big walls… "Climbing" destinations, such as Taghia (Morocco), Tsaranoro (Madagascar) or Spitzkoppe (Namibia) each have their own personality. As in the Verdon, the idea is not only to practice climbing intensely and safely, but also to experience all the beauty and singularity of the places.

For us, climbing is a sport resolutely rooted in nature. Individually, we aim to enable our clients to practice this sport safely, to have fun, to surpass themselves and ultimately to progress at their own pace, to gain confidence and to move towards autonomy. For the "nature" part, it is important for us to introduce our practitioners to the beauty, grandeur and wild side of the places and to make them live an intense and authentic emotional experience. Ultimately, this experience can go far beyond sport and become a true philosophy, even, for some, a spiritual quest. In 1982, Patrick Edlinger, in "La vie au bout des doigts" (Life at the fingertips), emphasized "the importance of having small needs in the era in which we live… ". We wish to share simple and beautiful moments and through them promote the vision of a healthy and simple life, connected to nature, a source of humility, as much as of plenitude.

« Park Values » Label

Anchored within the Verdon Regional Natural Park, it was logical for Rock’n Wild to approach local actors and partners who share the same sensibility. In 2025, our structure was awarded the « Park Values » label, which attests to its adherence to the values underlying the label: - Attachment to the territory - Respect for nature - Fulfillment of women and men

Your instructor – Rémy Ledauphin

Professional climbing instructor (holder of a DEJEPS Climbing in natural environment), he has been practicing climbing since 1982. At eleven years old, he discovered Patrick Edlinger in "La vie au bout des doigts", then in "Opéra vertical", filmed in the Verdon. The grace of the "blond", but also his discourse imbued with freedom and nature, constituted a revelation for him. Later, he became passionate about other sports. He is, thus, a holder of a BPJEPS in contact sports and a DEJEPS in underwater diving. Passionate about wildlife, he obtained a Master in ecology and a Master in Geography to devote himself to nature conservation, as an expatriate or consultant (mainly in Africa). Today, he lives in the Verdon, which allows him to share his passion for climbing and for this magical place. His pedagogy focuses on the discovery of the natural environment, on learning safety and autonomy, but also on sports improvement. Finally, for him it is an opportunity to share his philosophy of a life close to nature…
