ClimbFrance at The Castle Climbing Centre.


On Friday November 13th both Dylan and Ollie from ClimbFrance will be at The Castle Climbing Centre (London) for an informal climb / chat followed by food and (free) wine in the Cafe afterwards.

The idea is to get as many of our London based regulars to meet up and climb together. The evening will also provide the opportunity for those not familiar with ClimbFrance and the holidays and courses we offer to meet us (the staff) and our regulars.

We will be meeting from 6.30pm onwards and plan to eat around 9.00pm.

Hope you can make it!

Rock Climbing in the South of France for deaf people.


ClimbFrance has teamed up with interpreters Communication ID to provide the first climbing holiday exclusively for deaf climbers. All instruction will be interpreted into BSL (using two fully-qualified IRP registered Interpreters)

The course will take place from 21st – 27th June 09 and is aimed at deaf climbers looking to make the move from indoor climbing to sports climbing outdoors.

The ClimbFrance instructors will work closely with interpreters from Communication ID (also climbers) to ensure the essential skills are taught safely, with the aim of giving deaf climbers the confidence and skills to carry on afterwards.

This week long course includes all food and accommodation at the ClimbFrance base in Provence, instruction and specialist equipment. The cost per person is £655 and spaces are limited to 8 people.

The 'Credit Crunch'



Don’t let the 'credit crunch' or state of the pound affect your foreign climbing holiday in 2009.

In addition to this, our courses and holidays represent the best value for money possible. All our courses and holidays include:

Food and accommodation at our stunning base in Provence
All coaching and instruction
All transport in France
Any specialist equipment you may need

From the time you are picked up to the time you depart there really is nothing else to pay.

‘A fantastic holiday. Great Instruction, lovely accommodation and delicious food. We didn’t have to think or plan for anything other than the climbing.’ Kate and Simon. Nottingham.


'Thanks for the fantastic weeks climbing in June, it was even better than I ever imagined. I’m going to have to sample some French climbing again for sure!’ Heather B. Sheffield.
