The terrain.

The Tautavel cliffs dominate the Agly plain — dense, compact limestone, often polished by generations of climbers. The sector offers a very varied selection of routes: dry slab, vertical, slight overhang, with readable lines of 20 to 30 metres.

The session focuses on technical progression: route reading, body positioning, effort management. The guide introduces lead climbing and belaying from the ground. Minimum required level: 5+ routes independently.
