Description

While beautiful, peaceful and serene, there are also a lot of opportunities for physical challenges in the Grand Canyon. And on this 4 day hiking adventure, I would like to lead you on a trek that will have you traversing the wild and remote areas of the Colorado River.

Difficult at points, this 4 day trek traversing the Colorado river will definitely push you. However, the rewards from that difficulty will be a fantastic experience, full of gorgeous landscapes and mesmerizing views.

As a result of the tough nature of this particular hike, it is important that participants are in good physical condition. You should also have some previous hiking experience in a similar environment.

Following the Colorado river, we will trek from the thrilling Tanner trail to the New Hance trail. Along the way you will see an array of sensational slot canyons. Also, don’t be surprised if you spot some of the area’s abundant wildlife either, so definitely keep your eyes peeled. Finally, we will be camping on the beaches of the Colorado River during the nights. Thus giving you a chance to hear the famous river’s current as you sleep, which will doubtlessly aid you in getting a fantastic rest. Why settle for recordings, when you can enjoy the real thing!

If you are a fan of physically challenging yourself in a wild, remote environment, you will love this 4 day hike. To enjoy it for yourself, just send us a request. We look forward to guiding you and showing you just how beautiful the Grand Canyon can be.

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.
