Horizon Vertical - Sports Aventure - Ariège Pyrénées

The team of professionals at Horizon Vertical proose:

Rock climbing
With more than 1800 equipped routes, Ariege is without a doubt a must-visit region for rockclimbing in France. We offer beginning rock climbing on instruction rock faces in the area around Saint Girons. For big routes, the sites at Sinsat, Dent d'Orlu and Bédeilhac will satisfy advanced climbers.
Rockclimbing is accessible to everyone. Whatever the level of ability, the natural or artificial sites provide much personal satisfaction by helping you to vanquish fears, master your body, gain confidence or test your limits.

Formulas : 1/2 day, full day, weekend, or 3-5 day course.
Period : March to November.



Canyoning
In these veritable natural waterparks the object is to descend into the bottom of deep gorges in which swirl torrents of turquoise water. It's an acrobatic, aquatic playland awaiting you : swimming, jumping into deep basins, sliding, rappelling down waterfalls... a whole programme!
If you love nature, water and thrills, canyoning is for you. The canyons closest to Toulouse are located in Ariège and they are perfectly adapted to initiation. We also propose, in spring or autumn, trips into Spain (canyon mascun, gorgas negras) and many others in Sierra de Guarra and Mont Perdu as well as in the Pyrénées Orientales (canyon du Llech).
Thrills and unforgettable landscapes guaranteed..

Options : 1/2 day, full day, weekend, 3-5 day course.
Period : May to October
Spelunking
If there's a region where the subterranean world has its place, it's certainly in Ariège. It's a fantastic playground where everyone can find an underground experience made to order.

For beginners we offer visits to easy caves; for the bolder there are narrow (tunnels) or vertical spelunking.

For those who like to push themselves, there is rappelling/abseiling (canyoners, climbers, alpinists, spelunking clubs...), thrills (squeezes, vertical passages, water passages...). The traverses are the most adapted (situated near the longest known subterranean network, the Félix Trombe-Henne Morte).

For a unique experience, there is bivouacking : to pass the night underground is to discover total blackness, the serenity of caves, the conviviality of bivouacking and above all, to feel what it's like to isolate yourself from the world and lose the notion of time.


Options : 1/2 day, full day, trial outing, vertical spelunking (initiation or perfection), traverses, bivouacs (2 days with 1 night underground).
Period :year round by reservation as long as weather conditions are acceptable..
