Climbing enthusiasts and those curious about this booming discipline will discover the Salon de l'Escalade for the first time in Paris, on January 11 and 12, 2025, in the heart of Porte de Versailles.

The Salon de l'Escalade has been held for the past four years, but for this new edition, we're heading for Paris and the Porte de Versailles, on January 11 and 12, 2025. Indoor, outdoor, route, bouldering, solo, roped, in the mountains, in the city, on natural or artificial sites, there are so many ways to practice climbing, a fast-growing sport that is increasingly popular with all generations. For two days, whether you're a beginner or an expert climber, take advantage of numerous on-site events, round tables and conferences.

Two key climbing personalities will be on hand for the occasion, Oriane Bertone, member of the French climbing team at the Paris 2024 Olympic Games, and Alain Robert, urban climber and falaisiste. Climbing in all its verticality will be presented to the whole family, through books, challenges, animations, films, conferences and debates, as well as athletes you can meet and stands where you can discover climbing products.

It's also an opportunity to try out your climbing skills on the many ephemeral walls where you can learn the ropes, test out your equipment or take part in competitions to join other climbing enthusiasts, in a region that boasts the largest number of climbers in France, with almost 150 clubs and over forty private climbing gyms, and of course the Fontainebleau forest.
