Description
It's my pleasure to invite you to this 9-day rock climbing adventure in Carros de Roc**, Catalonia.**
Carros de Roc is one of the most important rock climbing spots of the Pyrenees. It is located in the Aigüestortes and San Mauricio Lakes National Park. As you may know, it is the only one national park of the autonomous community of Catalonia.
Carros de Roc offers endless options for the practice of outdoor activities. Rock climbing is one of them. The large granite walls surrounded by forests and lakes provide the best environment for rock climbing lovers.
We will spend 9 days learning or improving the most important climbing techniques. During the night, we will rest in different mountain huts we will reach by foot. They are very comfortable and warm spaces that make it easier to achieve our goals each new day.
Please find the day-by-day program at the bottom of this page. Keep in mind that the best season to come is from May to October. However, if you are planning to visit the Pyrenees during the winter, let me recommend this 5-day ski tour in Carros de Fog.
So, I will be waiting for your contact in order to find the best rock climbing option for you. Get in touch and let's get the best from this trip.

About the guide

Mountain Guide
UIAGM/IFMGA Mountain Guide based in the Pyrenees
I grew up by the seaside, but since the age of 9 I started going to the mountains. And since then, I never stopped.
I learned about freedom from philosophy, physics and maths, and then the mountains showed it to me.
I get new knowledge from forming new guides, studying mountain medicine, and training body and mind. But going to the mountains give me the reflexes.
From top level climbing, alpine style 8000s peaks, skiing and snowboarding, opening routes from the Arctic to the Antarctic, passing through the Himalayas and climbing in the desert and the jungle, from the Patagonian Ice to Vietnam: The important thing is not where you get, the important thing is to go.
I’m based in Benasque, in the Pyrenees, but consider myself a nomad. I just expect the rain or the sun rising every morning to celebrate nature’s cycle, and continue living as part of it.

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.
