🧗 Choosing your spot

🏢 Gym : paid, open all year, usually with shoe and harness rental. Ideal for beginners.
🧱 Climbing wall : an artificial wall with bolted-on holds, in a sports hall, school, club or outdoors. Often free, but reserved for clubs or the manager's opening times.
⛰️ Crag : a face of natural rock, from 10 to several hundred metres high, climbed roped up. Usually open access. Only climb if you know how to belay, wear a helmet, and take the site guidebook.
🪨 Natural boulder : large natural boulders 2 to 5 m high, climbed without a rope, above a crash pad. Have a spotter and respect the circuits.
Respect the sites : use the marked car parks, no noise near nests, take your rubbish home. Many crags exist thanks to agreements between landowners and climbers.
