Description

Pico Almanzor (2,591 m) lies within the Sierra de Gredos in the province of Ávila. And it is the highest peak in Central Spain. If you are looking for a program to explore this dazzling mountain, search no more. Join me on this fantastic adventure to reach its summit.

This colossal peak made of granite, stands out not only for its size but its incomparable beauty. Also known as Moro Almanzor it is the perfect destination for this 2-days mountaineering trip.

The highest point in Sierra de Gredos is Pico Almanzor. Thus, we will get unrivalled views of this magnificent mountain range from its summit.

Sierra de Gredos extends through the provinces of Salamanca, Cáceres, Toledo, Ávila and Madrid. And it forms part of a larger range, the Central System. Also, it was declared a natural park  by Castile and Leon. Therefore it remains in excellent conditions.

On this marvellous adventure we’ll head to Hoyos del Espino and then Circo de Gredos, taking an easy path. So it will be a pleasant and beautiful hike. Then, we’ll reach the Laguna Grande de Gredos mountain refuge, where we’ll spend the night.

After a good night sleep and recovering our energies, we will prepare to reach the summit of Almanzor on our second day. Upon completion and once we take in the breathtaking views of the area we’ll descend, and head back home.

Do you want to join me on this trip? Just send me a request. It would be my pleasure to guide you on this wonderful place.

I also guide this 2-day ascent with overnight in a mountain hut in Pico Almanzor as well, if you wish to spend the night in the peak.

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.
