Description

When it comes to mountaineering, one of the biggest obstacles is navigating challenging terrain. It is an issue that every mountaineer encounters. It is also an issue that becomes increasingly problematic the more challenging the area you choose to climb. As a result, it is crucial to learn the skills and techniques necessary to navigate through that kind of terrain. That is why I am offering this full day course in the Sierra Nevada Mountains of Spain that focuses specifically on navigating through challenging terrain.

The area where you will be learning and practicing is located near Lugros, in the Spanish province of Granada.

Throughout this course you will learn how to safely make your way through steep terrain, ridges, rocks, detours and more. You will also learn about equipment usage, gestural techniques of basic climbing, how to secure a rope, how to tie basic knots, how to evaluate various types of terrain and more.

Participants on this course should be in good physical condition.

While this course only lasts a single day, I have no doubt you will learn many valuable lessons that will not only serve you well in the Sierra Nevada Mountains, but in other mountain ranges you may choose to explore and climb in the future. To join me on this course just send me a request. I look forward to guiding you.

I also offer a sport climbing course in the Sierra Nevada that 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!

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.
