Where to climb Pyrénées-Atlantiques

The Roof is the first bouldering gym in the Basque Country. Bouldering consists of climbing artificial profiles no higher than 4.50 metres, without ropes or harnesses. Falls are received in complete safety on special mats. All you need is a pair of slippers to enjoy this complete physical and mental discipline. This sport cultivates an art of living that gives you a sense of height!

Bouldering is the ideal way to experience the pleasures of climbing... You don't need a rope or a harness - all you need to get started is a sports outfit and climbing shoes (available for hire on site). You'll discover routes for all levels in a spacious setting, with or without a guide depending on the formula. The fun zone upstairs offers easy routes, slake lines and a relaxation area for several climbers. Those who have already mastered the art can head for the first floor to perfect their skills. Good news: the restaurant is not just for climbers! You can nibble on a burger or a seasonal dish while admiring the athletes from the bay, or even play a game by the stove in winter!

Located at the Cirque d'Anglas, a historic climbing spot in the Ossau valley, the site is easily accessible (at the end of the small road, passing in front of the supermarket, close to the center, on the D918), while retaining its wild character. With a height of some fifteen meters, it now offers 6 new routes for levels 4 and 5, adding to the fifty or so already existing routes. Since the 60s, climbers have attempted to climb the crags at Arudy, making it a training rock before the Ossau cliffs.
