Children’s climbing in Bois de Paiolive

The Païolive wood

The Païolive wood nibbles at both banks of the river in the Chassezac gorges. This tangle of rocks and trees will captivate you. You’ll also discover the Arche du Chassezac, one of the three most beautiful natural arches in the Ardèche, along with the Arche du Pont d’Arc in Vallon Pont d’Arc and the Arche du ranc de l’Arc in the Ibie valley.

A magnificent climbing site

This is where children get their first taste of climbing in the fantastic rocks on the left bank of the Chassezac, just beside the Chassezac gorges between Casteljau and Les Vans. This beautiful climbing site is just downstream from the Agachou car park. Many thanks and congratulations to Noé, Hugo and Léone. On the other side of the river, the magnificent and magical Païolive wood.
