Catalonia is one of the best places in Europe for rock climbing. Believe me: this is the area where I come from. There are vast options, whether you are coming for a day or longer.
In this trip, I offer you the possibility to choose your favourite climbing spot and the tour duration according to your experience and interests. I can take you to the main climbing massifs in the region: Montserrat, Montsec and Pedraforca.
Montserrat is a labyrinth of impressive needles with more than 4000 climbing routes of varied difficulties. The landscapes are amazing, it has different terrains and lots of historical places I will tell you about.
On the other hand, Montsec is a mountain range of 40 km with limestone cliffs between 100 and 500 meters high. Of course, it is impossible to make all the routes in one tour, but I will tell you about the most interesting spots so you can choose.
Pedraforca is quite similar, the difference being the landscape is alpine-like, with huge forests and snowy peaks in winter.
So, whether you are a beginner in rock climbing or the most experienced one, I can find the perfect climbing spot for you in Catalonia. Do not hesitate to contact me! Another option I really like is climbing Els Encantats and Amitges, you can also check it out!

Mountain Leader
UIAGM/IFMGA guide from Catalunya.
I was born in 1959, and following a family tradition, I started practicing mountain sports. After a period of learning (in the mountains of Catalunya and the Pyrenees), the influence of the alpine literature drove me to high mountains and the Alps, where I climbed some of the most well-known peaks. Following that, I continued my mountaineering career with winter expeditions, expeditions outside Europe, and adventures on my own. This passion made me decide to become a mountain guide, and I am fully dedicated to this profession all year long.
Other interests I have are photography, writing and teaching.

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.
