Bouldering & Vanlife in Fontainebleau

We were enroute down to the French Alps in our little van, and decided to stop in the beautiful Forest of Fontainebleau to do some bouldering. It was a perfect way to get our bodies moving, after a busy week getting the van ready and a couple of days sat on the motorway! The forest was stunning, and we got to test out our newly converted van before continuing down to Chamonix. They'll be a couple more videos from France coming out over the next few weeks :)

Great Vlog guys. We’re planning at trip to Chamonix in our van, then Fontainebleau on the way back. Jingo wobbly has a great guide book for font, great maps and easy to find where you are. Looking forward to your next vid. 👍👍

Nice and calm video, what’s the song and singer in the background. ?

The first song was Renee by SALES. And thanks!

@antr7493 3 жыл бұрын

Song goes really well wit the video. Most people will put generic dub step music in their videos.

Looks like Harvey was carrying the van on his back Lol. When you're down in the Alps, watch out for the wolves.....I don't mean be careful but keep your eyes & ears open for signs, you will be very lucky if you see one.

@RambleFamily 5 жыл бұрын

Hahaha! Well he was technically carrying our bed on his back... we sleep on our bouldering pads! Sadly didn't see a wolf, but that would be an incredible experience.
