Description

Pico de Almanzor is a magnificent mountain that rises at 2,591 meters, towering over Sierra de Gredos. If you wish to reach its summit, don’t hesitate and join me on this half-day program.

In about 5 to 7 hours you will be standing at the top of Pico Almanzor. We’ll depart from Refugio Laguna Grande (1,950 m) at the Circo de Gredos. Thereon our fantastic mountaineering adventure will begin. As we hike to the summit, we’ll pass by many enchanting paths, discovering the local flora and fauna. Moreover, we will enjoy the most breathtaking views of the Sierra de Gredos.

Sierra de Gredos is a mountain range that forms part of the Central System range. It extends through the provinces of Madrid, Toledo, Salamanca, Caceres and Ávila. And its highest point is Pico Almanzor. Therefore it is undoubtedly one of the best places to enjoy the dazzling views of this majestic mountain range.

Pico de Almanzor is not a difficult ascent. Reaching the top of this granite colossus makes up for a beautiful hike. Nonetheless, participants need to have a good fitness level. But worry not, as this is a private trip. This means I will be with you the whole time, making sure you and your group are safe and having a great time. It also means you won’t have to share this wonderful experience with unknown participants.

Are you ready to conquer Pico Almanzor? Just send me a request and let me guide you to the top.

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.
