SUMMER 2025 - INFO TO COME

ROCK SAFETY WEEKEND

Registrations open in Spring 2025!!!

I climb on cliffs or multi-pitch routes.
I know how to belay—or at least I think I do—but am I really doing everything correctly?
I want to climb safely, learn the essential rope techniques for climbing safety (belaying from the top, rope handling at the anchor, storing ropes, rappelling), build solid anchors in any terrain, manage rope drag efficiently, and belay with my climbing buddies!

This weekend is made for you (and your friends)!

For ages 16 to 19 only (no old folks in the group!), to learn and review rope techniques for climbing safety and move confidently on rock terrain.

Required level: Some climbing experience (sport crag or multi-pitch), and must have led routes before.

Supervision: 2 high mountain guides, instructors from La Chamoniarde

WINTER 2023/2024 : TWO COURSES DEPENDING ON LEVEL AND EXPERIENCE

FREERIDE (13-17 years old)

This training day is designed to provide a 'backcountry safety package' to teenagers: pre-trip considerations (avalanche risk assessment, route, exposure...) - On-site observations - Planned run / emergency run? Decision to turn back? - Transceiver-shovel-probe exercises.

The aim is for young off-piste enthusiasts to make a conscious choice between proceeding, adapting, or turning back, rather than merely following a desire for fresh powder.

Free ! (Excluding lift pass fees).

ONLY FRENCH SPEAKING
