Tour Reviews
I could not be happier. The site selections are superb! The guidance, team building and environment created are top notch. Moreover, Leo and La Liberte Nod-Sud have the proven ability to have everyone at the club from beginners to more advance climbers to have fun, challenge themselves and create a spirit of comradery, these are only possible not only due to their professionalism and outstanding climbing skills but also because they are great people who love what they do.
If you want to learn or advance your climbing skills and have fun in the most beautiful places the laurentides have to offer I highly recommend La Liberte Nod – Sud!
