Description

Are you looking for a super fun and safe rock climbing adventure in the Andes? Then come with me to the Cochamó Valley and try the exciting vertical routes of Cerro La Junta!

The Cochamó, in northern Patagonia, is a U-shaped alpine valley near the city of Puerto Varas. With impressive granite domes, lush forests and deep-blue waters, its unique landscape will take your breath away. For its several over-900m walls and about 100 established routes, it is a popular destination among rock climbing lovers.

On this 4-day tour, I will take you to Cerro La Junta (1,677m). After setting up camp close to an amazing granite wall, we’ll start challenging our limits facing exciting cracks! The chosen route is the “Camp Farm” , a 350-meter-long line with 8 pitches. It is one of the most famous routes in the Cochamo Valley.

Please note that this trip requires a good fitness level and some rock climbing experience: you need to be able to head up a 5.10 route.

So, if you are up for this awesome rock climbing trip in Chile, please get in touch with me. Let’s explore the Cochamó Valley and climb impressive granite walls of Cerro La Junta!

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!

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.
