Description

This 2-day Val d'Aran trad climbing course will teach you how to face a long climb with or without your gear.

Keep in mind that this is not an introductory course. So you'll need to know the basic notions of rock climbing and rope use. I'll show you how to climb on clean walls and adventure terrain. I will check out your level to design the course according to your needs. Please note that this course can only be taught in Spanish.

Therefore I'll focus in what you lack, either in theory or practice: choosing an approach, maps interpretation and gear assessment are some of the items we'll cover. And then, we'll go to the rocks and figure out everything you need to climb safely.

But most of all, the first rule of this course will be to enjoy it! We'll be climbing around the beautiful Val d'Aran, in Catalonia. It's an iconic place to practice this sport in Spain. So you'll be surrounded by other climbers, which makes the whole experience much more enriching.

So please don’t hesitate to contact me with any questions you may have. I’ll get everything ready for you to enjoy this 2-day Val d'Aran trad climbing course. 

And if you'd like to check out some of my winter courses, please take a look at my Val d’Aran ice climbing course or my Val d’Aran glacier course.

Man

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.
