Itinerary

DAY 1 / 2
Accommodation
portaledge
Climbing
6h

We arrive in Freyr at around 10am, where we'll meet Lolotte, our instructor for the weekend.

The morning will be devoted to learning the technical aspects of rock climbing, according to each person's level. We'll have a chance to climb to put the theory into practice, before having lunch.

In the early afternoon, we'll be given explanations relating to a night in a portaledge (hoisting, safety, installations, practical aspects, etc.).

We'll then put what we've learned into practice, with the aim of creating our own cosy little nest high up in the air. The day will end with an aperitif and a meal shared together on the cliff.

DAY 2 / 2
Climbing
4h

After a night to remember, we'll have breakfast and admire the view from our portaledge. The rest of the morning will be spent getting our gear back down to dry land.

After that, we'll be free to do as many activities as we like under Lolotte's supervision. Whether it's top-roping, lead climbing or even trad climbing, Lorraine is ready to teach us everything we need to know, according to our level and abilities!

The expedition ends around 6pm.

Frequently asked questions

I don't have any climbing experience, can I take part?

Yes, of course. Having climbing experience is a plus, but not compulsory. All we ask is that you feel physically and, above all, mentally capable of facing the void. Sleeping at height isn't for everyone!

I don't have any climbing equipment. Is that serious, Doctor?

No problem if you don't have any climbing equipment: we'll provide you with all the equipment you need to climb and sleep on the cliffs in complete safety. However, if you do have climbing equipment, we strongly recommend that you take it with you!

What about insurance for rock climbing?

Insurance for rock climbing is included in the price of your expedition.

What is a portaledge?

According to wikipedia 😜 : "A portaledge, also known as a wall tent, is a hanging system designed for climbers who spend several days and nights on long routes. An assembled portaledge is a fabric platform framed by a metal frame; this frame is attached to a belay point by means of adjustable straps."

What do I need to sleep in a portaledge?

All technical and safety equipment will be provided. All you need to bring is your bivouac equipment (sleeping bag, mattress, clothes suited to the weather).

Can I privatise this expedition for my group?

Yes, all our expeditions can be privatised for a group already formed, on the dates of your choice.

To make your request, go to the expedition that interests you and click on "Privatise the expedition". We'll take care of the rest!

Are instalment payment options available?

Yes, absolutely! At checkout, you can choose Alma to pay for your booking in 2, 3 or 4 instalments. Just select Alma during checkout and follow the instructions. It’s simple, fast, and secure.
