What you'll do

Buoux is a small village in Provence, just a short drive from Marseille, yet it feels worlds apart with only 120 inhabitants and a peaceful, remote atmosphere. Nestled among lavender fields and rolling hills, it’s not just the scenery that makes Buoux special—it’s the legendary limestone cliffs that have drawn climbers for decades. Featuring vertical walls filled with pockets, sweeping overhangs, and striking formations, Buoux has hosted some of the greatest climbers in history, including Patrick Edlinger, Marc and Antoine Le Menestrel, and Lynn Hill. Climbing here means stepping into the past and progressing on the very same routes that shaped free climbing in the ‘80s and ‘90s. This trip is perfect for climbers with lead climbing experience, ready to immerse themselves in a world-class climbing destination.
