Here is a link to a web site that lists all the climbing gyms in Canada. This link is to the page for Quebec and it lists one in Quebec City. http://www.out-there.com/gym_pq.htm I hope this helps out.

There's Allez Up.....I go there all the time. Great climbs, cold water (helps when it's 30 plus outside!)
Here's the site, it's in English....It's not fully up yet...new site, but they have info about where they are and how to get there. It's Montreal...close enough. It's got the highest walls in the area....you should really check it out if you get a chance!

Tell me if you check it out....tell me what you think???!!!!

Hey there,

I'm not trying to be a smart ass, but why would you want to hit the gym on your vacation? Bring your gear and head farther north to Kamouraska (sp?) Sport climbing on limestone, now that's what I'd call a vacation.

Just a thought. Enjoy Quebec, it's a beautiful city.

Kamou is quite overrated.
Do not go on the weekends if you want to avoid HUGE crowds.
The routes are beautiful, and so is the setting.
And that's all. Don't leave ANY gear without surveilance, and you will be lucky if you meet friendly people and not jackasses.

It's like saying Paris is the mecca of french hospitality.
