Climbing in Uzerche in the Corrèze


It is possible to go rock climbing

 

  • on the artificial climbing cliff. Situated very close to the mill, it offers very easy access.
  • Indoors, on the artificial climbing wall in the activities room at the mill.

In addition, a tree-climbing adventure course was launched in the summer of 2003.

Cliff

The cliff is equipped with more than 20 climbing routes with a difficulty levels ranging from 3 (beginners) to 6c (experienced climbers), so there's something for every climber!

Climbing wall

The residents of La Minoterie (gites, cabins, campsite), have free access to the activities room at the mill and to the climbing wall, if there is no supervised session underway.

The use of the climbing wall is at your own risk (parents are responsible for minors).

 

La Base de loisirs de la Minoterie offers:

 

  • Half-day sessions for beginners or for the more advanced, depending on the applicant’s ability levels.

 

  • The beginners' and advanced training courses consist of 5 half days.

The training sessions and half day sessions are group sessions.

These courses are organised especially for each week of the summer (in July and August) from Monday to Friday mornings.

For the beginner, learning to put on equipment and ropes and abseiling downwards will form part of the early lessons.

The principal objective is to help most people attain as much independence as possible, including giving them a solid foundation in safety procedures.

Your instructor (the same one for the whole training) will teach you how to enjoy your rock climbing and will give you advice on how to improve your climbing technique.
