Description

When it comes to Patagonia, there is just so much to do and see. And for such a beautiful place to have such amazing variety makes it truly remarkable.

On this week long adventure, I would like to guide you for some fantastic rock climbing at the Piedra Parada.

The Piedra Parada consists of a stunning collection of rock formations near the Chubut river. There is an abundance of different climbing spots in the area. As a result, there are a number of single-pitch routes that are perfect for beginners and multi-pitch routes that are ideal for experienced climbers. So no matter what climbing level you are at, there is some great climbing in store for you at the Piedra Parada.

Along with the great daily rock climbing, there are other great highlights to enjoy on this trip as well. For instance, the trip will begin and end at Bariloche. This famous city is full of exquisite restaurants, priceless chocolate, and exciting night life.

And after leaving Bariloche, you will be thrust into the natural wonder of Patagonia. You will get to admire the Andes. You will also get to gaze at canyons like La Buitrera. And you will get to enjoy the peace and tranquillity that comes with such a vast and enchanting place.

A perfect combination of relaxation and excitement, an escape to the Piedra Parada is an experience worth having. Whether you are camping by the fire, or scaling a large rock face, you will be immersed in the gorgeous surroundings of Patagonia. So send me a request, meet me in Bariloche, and let the adventure begin.

Mountain Guide

I´m based in Bariloche, Patagonia, where I guide full time, mostly technical custom trips with small groups.

I started guiding in 1998, and my job took me all around the globe. In Montana, USA, where I lived for many years I worked extensively in the Rockies, guiding in the Tetons, Wind Rivers, and the Beartooths. Back to Argentina, I spend most of my time ski guiding volcanoes, rock climbing at Frey and mountaineering in Chalten and Tronador.

The rest of time I work as a Technical director at the AAGM, forming new guides, and trying to be an exciting dad for my two kids, taking advantage of the great backyard we have at home!

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.
