Description

La Cabrera is a mountain range located 60 kms at north of Madrid. Its highest peak is the imposing Pico de la Miel (1,392 m), one of the most famous rock climbing spots in Spain. In this tour I want you to join me and head up the amazing Espolón Manolín Route to its summit.

Madrid and its outskirts offer more than 55 places for rock climbing. A very popular area is La Cabrera, which is part of the Sistema Central, one of the main systems of mountain ranges of the Iberian Peninsula.

La Cabrera offers more than 300 semi-equipped mult-pitch routes for all level climbers to improve their traditional climbing skills. Its highest summit, Pico de la Miel, is a granite spur with perfect cracks and dihedral walls. We will reach its summit after heading up its most famous route: Espolón Manolín.

Considered one of the the longest climbing routes in Madrid, in Vía Espolón Manolín you will find a unique and very varied climbing experience: slabs, nuts and and vertical walls at more than 200m of altitude.

So, if you want to climb the amazing Vía Espolón Manolín and reach the summit of Pico de la Miel, please contact me! I am sure that this will be an unforgettable rock climbing outing for you!

Furthermore, the outskirts of Madrid offer many other climbing spots. For example, you can check out this tour that I’m offering in La Pedriza.

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.
