Catalonia is one of the best places in Europe for rock climbing. Believe me: this is the area where I come from. There are vast options, whether you are coming for a day or longer.
In this trip, I offer you the possibility to choose your favourite climbing spot and the tour duration according to your experience and interests. I can take you to the main climbing massifs in the region: Montserrat, Montsec and Pedraforca.
Montserrat is a labyrinth of impressive needles with more than 4000 climbing routes of varied difficulties. The landscapes are amazing, it has different terrains and lots of historical places I will tell you about.
On the other hand, Montsec is a mountain range of 40 km with limestone cliffs between 100 and 500 meters high. Of course, it is impossible to make all the routes in one tour, but I will tell you about the most interesting spots so you can choose.
Pedraforca is quite similar, the difference being the landscape is alpine-like, with huge forests and snowy peaks in winter.
So, whether you are a beginner in rock climbing or the most experienced one, I can find the perfect climbing spot for you in Catalonia. Do not hesitate to contact me! Another option I really like is climbing Els Encantats and Amitges, you can also check it out!

Mountain Leader
UIAGM/IFMGA guide from Catalunya.
I was born in 1959, and following a family tradition, I started practicing mountain sports. After a period of learning (in the mountains of Catalunya and the Pyrenees), the influence of the alpine literature drove me to high mountains and the Alps, where I climbed some of the most well-known peaks. Following that, I continued my mountaineering career with winter expeditions, expeditions outside Europe, and adventures on my own. This passion made me decide to become a mountain guide, and I am fully dedicated to this profession all year long.
Other interests I have are photography, writing and teaching.
