Outings in the Verdon Gorges

The Verdon is a site of global importance for climbing. Its potential is simply enormous. If the immense cliff of Escalès, located on the right bank, remains the largest sector, the most emblematic and the most frequented, the Verdon abounds in many other sectors, whether in the gorges or outside it, on the right bank, as on the left bank. These different sectors are home to hundreds of « couennes » (single-pitch routes) and multi-pitches routes. Can be accessed on foot or by abseiling…

Rock'n Wild offers day or half-day outings, whether in single-pitch or multi-pitches routes. Apart from climbing shoes and chalk bags, all climbing equipment (helmets, ropes, harnesses, quickdraws, slings, carabiners, belay and descent devices, etc.) can be provided during outings and are included in the rates.

Multi pitches routes

The multi-pitches routes proposed by Rock'n Wild are also chosen in different sectors according to the exposers, the levels, the objectives and, of course, the wishes of the participants. They can be short (4-5 pitches), medium (6-7 pitches) or long (8 or more pitches). The terms of access and return (on foot and/or abseiling) are also to be taken into account in the duration of the outing.

Single pitch routes

A «couenne» (in French, the skin of the pig) is a climbing route, consisting of a single pitch. This term appeared in the Verdon, where we began to open single pitch routes at the top of the gorges and compared them to the superficial part of the pig. From there, to make fat...

The sites are chosen according to the level and profile of the routes, exposure and climatic conditions, or, well, the objectives of the session.

Example of session objective:

  • Discovery
  • Initiation
  • Improvement
  • Development of autonomy
  • Development of self-confidence
  • ...

It can also be a session to prepare a major route (e.g. learning or reviewing abseiling, relays, belaying, progression, etc.).
