Description

Winter mountaineering is a thrilling activity. It can also be a difficult activity as well. As a result, it is important to learn the fundamentals that are necessary for ensuring your winter mountaineering is safe, as well as successful. That is why I am glad to offer this full day, introductory level, winter mountaineering course in the Sierra Nevada Mountains of Spain.

The course will take place in an area in the mountains near the municipality of Lugros, in the province of Granada.

Much will be covered during this course and the focus will be on the basics, the fundamentals. Some examples of what you will learn includes how to properly use winter mountaineering equipment, such as ice axes and crampons. You will also learn how to properly move in snowy terrain with rackets and rods.

Along with the instruction, this trip will also be a lot of fun. That is because your lessons will not be taught in a classroom. Instead, they will be taught in the beautiful Sierra Nevada Mountains. Thus giving you a chance to put what you’ve learned immediately into practice. The views in the mountains are also quite spectacular.

Participants on this trip should also be in good physical condition.

To join me on this full day course in the Sierra Nevada Mountains, all you have to do is send me a request. I look forward to hearing from you and guiding you.

After you’ve completed this course, I also offer a 2-day, level 2 course, which you can take here.

Since I was a kid I travelled around the hills and peaks of Sierra Nevada range in south Spain, going up and down the valleys that made me in love with the mountains world.

Steadily, I discovered other ranges of the Iberic peninsula such as the Pyrenees and Picos de Europa, and then I travelled to the peruvian Andes, the Amazonas jungle, the Moroccan Atlas...

Thanks to these experiences and two years of studying to become a professional mountain guide, I started a new project called Nevalia mountain guides.

I hope I can help you to make true your mountain dreams!

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.
