Welcome to Le [c]Camp Avancé![/c] A space dedicated to training and progression, designed for independent climbers who love to explore, work on a move, and gradually push their limits.
✦ the facilities
[u-2]Train,[/u-2] search, try, repeat
You don't need to be an athlete or a competitor to come to Camp Avancé. The gym is designed for those who want to improve, work on their climbing, and push their limits, from regular practice to high-level performance.
The spaces, training tools, and boulder routes are all designed with this in mind. The Advanced Camp is aimed at an experienced audience, but it is not reserved for pros: everyone can find something to work on at their own level and evolve their practice.
A tunnel worthy of a rabbit hole 🐇 also provides direct access to Le Camp d'Approche, where more accessible routes complement those at Le Camp Avancé.
Please note, however: the opening hours for the two gyms are not the same.
Information on levels and route setting
Le Camp Avancé is designed for experienced climbers, featuring demanding routes inspired by competition climbing. The approach to climbing, working on routes, and progression is quite different from what you would typically find in a bouldering gym.
Here, you will work on routes at your limit, and reaching the top is not an end in itself. Every session should be approached as a training session. There are fewer routes set, meaning fewer attempts per level. It is also a less consumption-oriented approach, more focused on understanding movement.
With walls reaching 4.5m high and demanding, competition-style routes, you are entering a true competition arena. The level and quantity of routes are not fixed; they vary based on events, simulations, and more.
✦ connected board
Kilter board
The Kilter board is an adjustable-angle wall with connected holds! With hundreds of routes available for all levels, it’s a powerful training tool that’s accessible to everyone.
The golden rule: only one person climbing at a time. Courtesy and respect are key so that everyone can enjoy themselves :)

Access for [c]youth[/c]
- Children under 12
The Advanced Camp is not open to children under 12. However, the building next door houses the Approach Camp: an educational facility specifically designed for little monkeys and families. The two gyms are connected—just follow the yellow line...
- Teens aged 12 to 16 (inclusive)
For teens aged 12 to 16 who wish to climb independently, a valid parental consent form must be on file in your member account.
Settings schedule
Bouldering routes at the Advanced Camp vary depending on the events taking place, so there is no standard color-coding system as you might be used to.
The minimum difficulty level generally remains quite high (purple-red Base Camp), but events can occasionally shake things up. Route levels are updated in this schedule: click on an event to reveal the details

First visit to Le Camp [c]Avancé[/c]
Bouldering is a fun, athletic activity for everyone. To help you plan your visit and ensure a pleasant, respectful experience for all, here is our guide to getting started on the right foot:
With two rooms in the same building, it's a bit like a rabbit warren in here.
There are two possible entrances, depending on the following times.
Before 5 p.m. on weekdays: access via Le Camp d'Approche, rue du Vivier 53, 1050 Ixelles
After 5 p.m. on weekdays and on weekends: access via Le Camp Avancé, rue de Theux 107, 1050 Ixelles
To climb in our gyms you need to create a member account, even for a trial session or if you are accompanying someone who is a regular. Registering online saves you from having to do it on-site and helps our front desk staff :)
Le Camp Avancé isn't just for pros; it's open to everyone.
However, this gym is intended for climbers who already have some experience. A minimum skill level of "Camp de Base purple/red" is required to make the most of it. The difficulty of the boulder problems varies depending on the events; please check the calendar to see which levels are currently available.
✓ The Kilter Board offers boulder problems for all skill levels!
✗ Climbing shoe rentals are not available on-site.
Le Camp Avancé is not open to children under 12; however, Le Camp d'Approche right next door is specially dedicated to them :)
Teens aged 12 to 16 inclusive are welcome to climb independently, provided they have parental consent.
Liquid chalk is recommended when used sparingly to minimize dust in the gym.
Powdered chalk is permitted, provided it is used mindfully and in a controlled manner (place your chalk bag on the floor rather than dropping it, avoid applying chalk with vigorous movements that spread particles into the air, and try gripping harder instead of reapplying ;) )
Wearing a T-shirt, top, or sports bra is mandatory.
