Join me on this fun, 2-day scrambling adventure and discover Madeira’s gorgeous landscapes.
Scrambling is an activity that lies between hiking and rock climbing. We won’t use ropes, but we will use our hands for climbing when necessary. This trip is the perfect thrill and challenge for an experienced hiker with good physical fitness.
On the first day, we’ll trek along the breathtaking Encumeada Pass, and the following day will be spent ascending the second highest peak in Madeira, Pico das Torres (1852m). It’s a rocky, dramatic peak, and even more impressive than the mountain itself are the spectacular panoramic views we’ll enjoy at the top.
We’ll spend 2-6 hours hiking per day, and spend one night in a shelter. The trip won’t be cancelled if it rains.
Book now, and you’re guaranteed to have a blast discovering two of Madeira’s most stunning places.

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.
