Le Camp Avancé

Le Camp Avancé

Le Camp Avancé is Le Camp de Base's training hall on the Rue de Theux in Ixelles, opened in 2026 for climbers who want to train and push their limits. Its walls are up to 4.5 metres high and set with demanding, competition-style problems. There are fewer problems than in a usual bouldering hall, and instead of a standard colour scale the setting changes with events and competition simulations, so the hall publishes a calendar of the levels currently up. As a rule, the easiest problems are around the purple to red level at Le Camp de Base.

There's also a Kilter Board with an adjustable angle and hundreds of problems at every grade, and three spray walls: a classic spray wall, a slab for footwork and a coordination area. A yoga room is due to open by the end of 2026 and a weights room in early 2027. The bar is at the end of the mats, and a tunnel leads to Le Camp d'Approche next door and its café, Bon Matin.

Good to know

• Anyone can climb here, but the hall is meant for people who already climb regularly.
• There's no shoe hire, so bring your own.
• Children under 12 aren't admitted. Those aged 12 to 16 can climb with an adult, or on their own with parental permission recorded on their member account.
• Everyone needs a member account, which can be created online before a first visit.
• Before 17:00 on weekdays the entrance is through Le Camp d'Approche at Rue du Vivier 53. In the evenings and at weekends you go in at Rue de Theux 107.
• Liquid chalk is recommended, and powdered chalk is tolerated if used with care. A T-shirt or top must be worn.
