Thrilling Activities: Rock Climbing and Via Ferrata
The Crozon Peninsula is one of Brittany’s most iconic rock-climbing destinations. Its Armorican sandstone cliffs, sculpted by the Iroise Sea, offer a unique experience suspended between sky and ocean. The local provider Roc’Ha Blok, based at Pointe de Pen Hir in Camaret-sur-Mer, offers climbing sessions led by certified professionals: introductory, advanced, or adventure courses, for beginners through experienced climbers, starting at €30 for a 2.5-hour session. Via corda —an aerial hike along the cliff face secured by a safety line—is available for participants ages 8 and up (€35 to €40 depending on the route). An unforgettable experience to enjoy from your base at Le Grand Large, just a few minutes’ drive away.
