Description

Near Madrid, Spain lies the dazzling El Tiemblo in the province of Ávila, Castilla y León which gets colored in bright reds, oranges and browns during the fall. Join me to discover all these wonderful colors on this one-day hike.

For this adventure, we’ll meet at Nuevos Ministerios early in the morning and ride through the Pantanos Road up to the town of El Tiemblo. There, we’ll take a bus to the Regato parking lot and begin our hike. We’ll explore the Yedra Gorge and ascend towards the Cruz del Tornero for a breathtaking views of the autumn tainted sea of chestnuts. Along the way, we’ll find the oldest chestnut tree in the area, known as the Grandfather Chestnut (Castaño El Abuelo), and hundreds of other enormous trees that give this place a fairytale-like atmosphere.

This is a 9-kilometer hike with no technical difficulties. Perfect for those looking for a relaxing day outdoors.

Climbing with guide Guillaume was absolutely a highlight of my 2-week Europe vacation. Originally, we were planning on climbing in the Calanques, but the park was closed due to wind and fire danger. Guillaume chose another amazing location (Pic de Bretagne) based on my climbing abilities and preferences and kindly offered train station pick-up and hotel drop off, which I appreciated very much. The multi-pitch route we did was not only fun but also the right amount of challenge, which I thoroughly enjoyed. The communication from the team (Gauthier) was prompt and clear—highly recommend!

Luis Silva was a great climbing guide and belayer! He taught me how to do moves that were difficult and encouraged me to try routes that were challenging for me! Because of his encouragement, I managed to complete these routes! I really enjoyed the climbs and completed 8 routes in the Sesimbra/Azoia area. The weather was perfect, no direct sun and cool enough to enjoy the climbs. Explore-Share made booking an outdoor climbing experience in Lisbon extremely easy. Luis, our guide, was fantastic, and the platform’s organization was flawless.

We had Léo as a guide for our day climb in Fonty. We were blessed with a knowledgeable, warm, and instructive guide. Communication with Léo and Ivan was smooth and swift. Explore-Share was excellent in arranging everything for our day climb. The communication was quick, and the platform was easy to use, making our adventure stress-free.

Patrick was a great guide. He took us on an intermediate Via Ferrata at Passo Sella. Renato was quick to respond with any outreach on the Explore-Share platform. The booking process was straightforward, and once Patrick was confirmed, all went well. It was a wonderful experience, and I’d highly recommend the platform.
