Hi!

I’m looking to travel Western Europe and wanted to know if anyone knew of good places to go climbing or rent equipment. (since i’m not going to pack my gear to Europe!)

Thanks to anyone who can help!

I can’t believe this forum is so dead…there’s good stuff here.
 
There’s some pretty legendary climbing in the Hautes-Alpes department of France.  You don’t have to head to Realization (5.15a, one of the hardest climbs in the world) to get the experience, it’s pretty rich all over.
 
Always best to find some local climbers and ask them…they may even offer a lift and let you bum some equipment (trading belays works miracles like this).
