* Challenge yourself on 8 pitches covering over 200 meters.

* Gaze at an enormous valley full of sensational Japanese natural landscape.

Description

While not an enormous peak, Mount Tachioka (1,295m) is nonetheless a great source of wonderful multi-pitch rock climbing.

For a full day, we will be climbing on a 8 pitch route that will cover approximately 230 meters. The route will takes us along the left ridge of Mount Tachioka. Moreover, the approach will take only 15 minutes.

The views you will get during the climb and at the culmination of the climb are tremendous. You will get to see a beautiful valley, as well as the gorgeous, nearby Kayagatake peak (1,704m).

Our trip will begin at the Nirasaki Station on the JR Chuo Line at 8:40 am. From there, we will take the aforementioned short approach to the peak and begin climbing. The climb will take most of the day, but additional time will also be taken to provide you with instruction whenever the opportunity presents itself. Thus making this trip educational, as well as enjoyable.

Multi-pitch rock climbing is a great activity because it is something you can do anywhere in the world where there are walls to be climbed. As a result, it is a fantastic means to explore new places. And on this trip, I would be happy to show you a great part of Japan.

So if you would like to enjoy this day long multi-pitch adventure on Mount Tachioka, just send me a request. I look forward to hearing from you.

I can also take you rock climbing on various multi-pitch routes on this 2 day trip in the beautiful Japan Alps.

There is also a private version of this trip, and other similar rock climbing trips that you can check out here.

Mountain Guide

I'm an IFMGA certified mountain guide, based in Saitama, in the vicinity of Tokyo.

At around the age of 12, I was captured by charms of the mountains as I started hiking with my friends in Japan. My main passion changed from hiking, to rock climbing, to winter mountains, to climbing abroad, but I was never let go by the mountain charms since then..

I've been guiding since 1995 and have also been trained at ENSA, the French mountaineering school in Chamonix.
As a climber, I've opened numerous new free climbing and multi pitch routes and accomplished a lot of first ascents all over Japan.
My experience extends abroad as well, having climbed the classic big wall rock climbing routes on El Capitan (Yosemite), Marmolada / Cime Grande (Dolomites), Lotus flower Tower (Canada), Trango Towers (Karakoram), and Fitz Roy (Patagonia), and in alpine climbing, the famous north faces of the Alps (Eiger, Matterhorn, Drus), as well as ice falls and high altitude mountains (Aconcagua, Amadablam, K2).

Guiding is not something anyone can do.
A mountain guide needs to be an advanced climber. But being a good mountain guide requires completely different set of skills including rope works and it's not enough to just be an expert climber. As a mountain guide, I aspire to continuously learn new techniques and develop myself as a guide, so as to guide clients safely and surely.
Finally, it is not enough to just have the right skills and knowledge to be a good mountain guide. One must understand the needs of each client and try his / her best to ensure clients' mountain experience is enjoyable and memorable and /or that the clients have learnt the techniques to become a better climber / mountaineer. This is my motto.

Lastly, please note that I don't speak English fluently so I will be communicating to you in mixture of English and gestures (or Japanese, if you can understand!).

I hope you get to enjoy the mountains in Japan or elsewhere with me!

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!

Maxine

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.
