Following a successful girls climbing trip I decide to join Dan, his two kids India and Sasha, Celine, Joost, Jacco, Lee and Paul on the weekend of September 12 climbing in the Ardenes region.

We even stay at the same guest house. On the way down I rode with Celine and Jacco. Celine was driving. I met them quickly at Rai station after work.

We decided to skip climbing in Yvoir on Saturday and head to Beez. Beez had some nice routes, I attempted a 6a with mixed success and Jacco learned how to lead climb. The rest of the day I more so focused on 5a’s and 5b’s.

There was even a hint of young romance on our climbing trip as with any good story.

In the evening we had some delicious wine and Belgian beer, plus some yummy waffles that India and Celine made.

We also played a really fun game of werewolf which kept everyone amused in the evening.

The next day we hit Yvoir. It was wet but not raining so we got a few of the easier routes done before packing up shop and heading back to Amsterdam.

It was a great trip and I’m grateful to everyone for making it like that. To view Dan’s recount of the trip please click here.
