The Provence Alps Riviera region offers a multitude of sites for climbing, mountaineering, potholing, via ferrata or high rope activities as part of an incentive seminar incorporating an introduction to vertical sports. From the deep rocky inlets of Marseille to the cliffs of the Verdon, by way of Mount Sainte Victoire, from the chasms of the Aix en Provence hinterland to the sinkholes of the Caussol plateau, from the Baous of the Nice hinterland to the Tête de Chien jutting out over Monaco, from the Mercantour Massif to the Ecrins Massif, the sites for all these sports are as beautiful as each other and offer landscapes and experiences that are out of the ordinary, and indeed in the case of potholing, out of this time!
