The Catskills are one of the best ice climbing destinations in North America. The Catskills are wonderful place for ice climbers, since they have over 25 different crags with 300+ climbs. During this 2-day adventure, you will enjoy many of these amazing crags and climbs.
Accessing the Catskills is not complicated. This wonderland is located only 161 kilometers north of New York City.
As you know ice climbing can be a challenging activity. Some locations could be difficult to access and might require supervision to ensure your safety. Our certified guides will not only take you to the best spots, but also follow the most strict safety regulations, to make sure you have a safe trip.
The Catskills offer a wide range of ice climbing spots. Thus we have designed this course to make the most of this incredible location. This trip welcomes novices and advance climbers alike. The routes and trails in this area are variable, with different types of challenges depending on your level and previous experience.
There are spots like the Asbestos Walls that are simply perfect for beginners. The Asbestos Wall is ideal to gain more experience, as you can climb a short and relatively comfortable cliff. However, there are also options for those who prefer multi pitch climbing, such as the Stoney Clove. And for the expert climbers there are routes like the Devils Kitchen. This demanding route has a great number of classic lines with different levels of difficulty. There is the Black Chasm route as well, with steep ice pitches that will definately test your skills.
If you are looking to challenge yourself, or want to learn more and gain experience, this 2-day ice climbing adventure is perfect for you. Send us a message, we will gladly accommodate your requests to make sure you have a safe, fun and unforgettable trip.

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.
