Description

Formiga is the most representative canyon of Sierra de Guara, in Huesca, Spain. On this tour we will enjoy an amazing canyoning and rappelling adventure surrounded by unique landscapes. Come and join me!

Located on the southern foothills of the Pyrenees, Sierra de Guara is probably the the most famous canyoning area in the world. It is even said that this sport was born there. The massif hosts the most beautiful European canyons, with sumptuous limestone narrows, translucent turquoise waters, and generous sunshine.

Canyoning in Formiga lets you try all the different activities that make activity so amazing including abseils, slides, jumps and siphons (water tunnels where we must submerge to cross). The first section involves a 7-meter rappel and a 5-meter slide. The second, is a very playful sequence of waterfalls and pools.

Furthermore, this outing is suitable for all levels. So you can bring your children with you if they can swim. You will all learn the basic canyoning skills under expert guidance!

So, if you are up for this canyoning and rappelling experience in one of the classic spots in Sierra de Guara, please contact me. The Formiga will grant you a complete and exhilarating adventure!

I can also take you to other canyons  in the area such as Peonera, Oscuros de Balced, and Vero River, among others. We can make a multi-day trip and explore the entire Sierra de Gredos!

I've been having a strong passion for outdoor sports for over 15 years. In the last 5 years, I've been working as a professional guide specialized in climbing and canyoning. My favourite is rock climbing, it doesn't matter the style (sport, trad, dws, bouldes, single or multipitch routes) the importat thing is climb high. As a native Mallorcan, Psicobloc or Deep Water Soloing, is in his genes. While he has a deep appreciation for the crags of Mallorca, Catalonia and Aragon, he has also climbed in Morocco, Turkey, Italy, France, Slovenia, Croatia, Tajikistan and China.

Man

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.
