Description
On this half-day trip, we would like to take you on a via ferrata adventure in the Portuguese town of Povoa de Lanhoso.
A small and beautiful town, Povoa de Lanhoso is located to the east of Braga. Located in northern Portugal, Braga is a beautiful city. It is also the third most populated city in the country as well. Full of gorgeous historical structures, it is a fantastic place to visit and explore.
During this trip, which only lasts a few hours, you will get to scale the Lanhoso castle, which is largest granite monolith in the country. Located on the slope of the Mount de Pillar, the experience of reaching the top, and the views you will get from there, are fantastic.
The via ferrata experience is adventurous and thrilling, but also very safe and secure. However, you should be in good physical condition, and any prior via ferrata experience would be helpful, as there will be some rappelling.
Visiting the city of Braga is a wonderful experience. The sights are plentiful, the people are wonderful and the food is delicious. It is an ideal place to see for anybody who wants to explore Portugal. And when you add on a half-day via ferrata in the nearby town of Povoa de Lanhoso, where you get to climb to a castle, it makes the trip even better.
If you would like to enjoy this spectacular opportunity, just send us a request. We look forward to guiding you.

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.
