Description

Come with me to this amazing rock climbing adventure in the Taillon Peak, a summit of the Pyrenees located on the border between Spain and France, within the Ordesa and Monte Perdido National Park.

There are many classic ascents in the Pyrenees, some more difficult than others. However, I believe that the north face of the Taillon peak must be in the curriculum of every Pyrenees lover.

The Taillon peak has a stable slope of 55º with a great exposure on its north face. It is a high level climbing since the quality of the snow has a lot of influence in the ascent. In fact, depending on the amount of snow, we will have 2 climbing options to choose, both of similar difficulty.

The Taillon peak also has a 700-meter wall. Therefore, reaching the summit can be difficult. On the other hand, the descent will be done by the Gabietos glacier, towards the Bujaruelo port and it is a quite gentle trail.

This rock climbing trip on the north face of the Taillon peak will take us 2 amazing days. The departure dates run during the month of April. All participants must have some prior experience in rock climbing. In addition, a good physical shape will be also necessary.

Contact me if you want to start with the booking process. It will be a honor for me to lead you up to the summit of the stunning Taillon peak, in the Pyrenees.

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.
