Located in the foothills of the Rockies in Alberta, Canmore is a great spot to prepare for a wilderness excursion. With various sub-mountain ranges, glacial lakes, and lush forests, the land is as gorgeous as it is exciting. To the west is Banff National Park, and the town and area have stunning views of all the natural features.
The region boasts a wide variety of wildlife and forests that extend into the horizon. The are panoramas and views straight out of your dreams; if you were looking for a trip into nature, it would be hard to imagine anything more beautiful than this.
For rock climbers, it is a hub for excursions of every length and style. Many of the top spots have varying levels of difficulty to cater to everyone, and the volume of available routes makes it possible to have a unique and personal experience on some of the most popular rock faces in Canada.
Our program is designed for multi-pitch tours, and while we have great courses outside of Canmore at Yam Bluffs, you can choose one of our other incredible sites to get valuable climbing time. We can tailor your program together and make it a special experience that you won´t be able to forget.
Whether you have been climbing for a long time, or you are just getting started on the mountain, I am more than happy to guide you on a day-long program that suits your abilities and fitness. As this will be a multi-pitch course, any climbing experience will be considered an asset.
We want to have a safe and relaxing time, and Canmore is like a second home for me. We will share the amazing beauty of our course within the safe and satisfying guidance of the program.
Give yourself the gift of nature and book this day program rock climbing the best multi-pitch routes in Canmore and Canada!
We can also enjoy a half- or full-day introductory course in the Bow Valley at Yam Bluffs. Or we can take a two-day trek to Wapta Glacier.

After learning the skills, you will get to practice them in the backcountry with my guidance or that of one of the ACMG-certified guides in my team.

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.
