Description

Join me on a fantastic trip to the colorful Jujuy province in Argentina. On this 4-day trip through Las Yungas, the subtropical jungle of Calilegua National Park, we’ll discover varied vegetation, stunning views and the warmth of the local people.

This historic hiking trail in the Calilegua National Park will take us through some wonderful places in the Argentine pre-Andes. Some of these places include San Francisco, Peña Alta, San Lucas, Santa Bárbara, Valle Grande River, San Lucas River and many others. You can check the itinerary below for more information. However, keep in mind it may change depending on weather conditions and the group’s pace.

Additionally, keep in mind that for this trip you will need to bring comfortable and warm clothes for hiking, hiking boots, sandals, two hats (one for the sun and one for the cold), a waterproof jacket, sunglasses, sunscreen, water bottles, a sleeping bag, thermal insulation, personal hygiene bag and walking sticks. Also take into consideration that you will need to be physically fit for this excursion.  Of course, I’ll be happy to help you with anything you may need.

When guiding, my objective is to provide confidence and safety to my clients, and by the end of the trip to say goodbye as friends.

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.
