Description

Courmayeur in the Aosta valley of Italy is a fantastic place to enjoy some thrilling rock climbing. And on this full day course, the focus will be on teaching you introductory level techniques. Thus making this trip is ideal for beginners, who want to enter the world of outdoor rock climbing.

During this day long course, a lot of attention will be paid to the basics. Our focus will be teaching you the skills necessary to begin your journey scaling various rock walls, from the smallest to the largest. And, of course, our number one item on the agenda will be safety because if you don’t learn how to climb safely, you should not be rock climbing.

We will spend time teaching you how to properly use the top rope and basic climbing techniques, while helping you learn how to minimize any fears you may have. Hence ensuring that you are comfortable on the rocks. This will enable you to concentrate more on proper climbing.

Our guides want you to enjoy rock climbing. We want you to have a great time in an activity that people around the world adore. However, we believe the best way to enjoy something is to learn how to do it properly and safely. And we also think that learning to do it in a place as beautiful as Courmayeur, with the amazing Mont Blanc mountain in clear view, only adds to the fun!

So if you want to spend a day learning how to rock climb, send us a request, come to Courmayeur and let us teach you.

What people are saying about Explore-Share

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.

Valeriya

You’re simply the best!!! :))) Explore-Share made everything easy and stress-free. Will definitely use again.

Joshua

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.

Cami

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.
