Would you like to join a unique rock climbing program in Pic du Midi d’Ossau? Then join me on this thrilling adventure starting from the Refuge de Pombie in the Pyrenees National Park.
Due to its unique shape, the Pic du Midi d’Ossau is an emblematic mountain in the French Pyrenees that rises 2,884 m above the Ossau Valley. There are many routes to go up this stunning peak. The normal route, which is one of our options, starts from the refuge de Pombie, at an altitude of 2,031 m.
On this program, we will meet at the Pourtalet parking lot and head first to the refuge. Once there, we will prepare the equipment and then set off on our rock climbing adventure. One option will be to take the normal route. Another option will be to take the Espolon de los Muchachos route on the east side. We will find chimneys, cracks, slabs and pitons to help us up. Once at the summit, we will enjoy amazing views of the Pyrenees. The descent will be a little more technical and will require some rappelling.
For this adventure, it is important that you are physically fit. Additionally, you will require some prior rock climbing experience. Of course, I will be there to help and guide you every step of the way.
So, are you ready for this rock climbing adventure in the Pic Midi d’Ossau? Then book your place now and start planning an unforgettable adventure in the Pyrenees!
I also offer thrilling via ferrata programs in the Tena Valley!

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.
