Description

Kalymnos is a beautiful Greek island with superb views of the Aegean sea. However, what makes the island so special is not just the gorgeous scenery, but also the fantastic rock climbing.

Over a week period, I would like to guide you on a tailormade coached day on Kalymnos designed for people who can climb from a 6b to an 8a level. You should have some previous rock climbing experience and be in good physical condition.

The purpose of this performance coaching day is to help you improve on the skills you have already developed in the past, as well as help you learn new skills. And by the end of the program, you will be able to push yourself more than you thought possible. You will also be more confident while climbing higher and more challenging rock walls. Thus opening you up to countless future climbing opportunities anywhere in the world!

Some of what will be covered during this coaching day in Kalymnos includes the following.

Mental coaching
Specific climbing techniques
Proper breathing techniques
How to properly analyse your climbing progress
Learning about proper belaying dynamics for lead climbing and falls
Developing better movement

While the focus of this trip is challenging rock climbing, you will also get to explore the wonderful island of Kalymnos as well. Just a few of the great highlights of the island and surrounding area includes the Grande Grotta, Kos, Telendos island, Arginota, which you will get to climb, and so much more.

Rock Climbing Instructor

After nearly 10 years of mountaineering in Chamonix, I decided to dedicate myself to rock climbing.

In 2005, after one year intensive training, he got the french national sport’s instructor certificate for rock climbing (BEES escalade).

I have been exploring the crags of France, Spain, Italy, Switzerland, Canada and China. I finally decided to set up his climbing school in the island of Kalymnos (Greece). The beautiful landscapes, the endless sunshine and the vast climbing potential of the island convinced me to settle here from my first visit.

Since then, climbers from all over the world came to share his passion and to take avantage of his experience to improve their rock climbing skills. I have opened many new routes both in Kalymnos and Telendos from 4 to 9a. I climb 8a on-sight and red-point up to 8c. I did most of the routes of the island and always has new projects to red point!

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.
