The Aragonese Pyrenees in Bielsa, Spain, have scenic surroundings that include dramatic canyons, red and yellow stripes all along the limestone walls and amazing flora covering it all with shades of green.
That is why I think this is the perfect spot for beginners to start the exciting path of rock climbing. If you join this 1+ day trip, you will be able to learn how to climb a vertical wall and add a new skill to your adventurer résumé. You can also stay with me one more day and learn to lead a climb (help yourself with an elastic rope while climbing).
The incredible rock around Bielsa will be our lab for you to run your own experiment. I will be there to teach you basic rules and techniques and help you to achieve new goals in the activity.
Even though this is a trip for beginners, you need to have at least a fairly good physical condition to join.
Spend just one minute to book 6 hours (or more) of pure rock climbing. You will not regret it!
If you already have a solid experience in the activity and want a more demanding challenge, I can offer you this rock climbing week in the most incredible spots of Northeastern Spain.
We will learn all the basic skills for rock climbing.
We will spend the day learning how to lead climb (using an elastic rope to attach yourself and adjusting it periodically while you ascend). This day is optional.

Cecilia was the absolute best guide ever! We booked 3 days of climbing for my 20 year old son and his girlfriend and could not have asked for anything more. She is an amazing person who is beyond knowledgable, strong, inspiring and kind. Such an incredibly beautiful part of the world too. We were all sad to see it end and really a dream come true for my kids! Thank you Cecilia, we miss you already!

Cecelia is an excellent guide and climber. She was adaptable and encouraging, as well as friendly and knowledgeable about all things climbing. I am grateful for the chance to climb with such a pro.

Cecilia was a phenomenal guide! I highly recommend everyone check out Riglos with Cecilia because the rock quality was so unique and fantastic, and she found the perfect route at the level I requested (5.9). Cecilia is so knowledgeable, encouraging, and fun to climb with. I hope to come back and climb with her again some day!
