Description

Join me for this unique outdoor experience as we learn and hone our rock climbing skills in the stunning beauty of Serra da Estrela Natural Park in northern Portugal!

After meeting up, we will have a quick introduction to the function and purpose of all of the gear, then we will get out on to the rocks for some practice.

No previous experience is necessary for this trip, making it perfect for families and groups of friends.

Over the course of the day, we will learn several different climbing and abseiling techniques, rope control and equipment use. After a quick lunch on the rocks, we will challenge ourselves with some more climbing and attempt to the top of one of the innumerable cliffs in the park.

Once we have gotten to the top of one of these cliffs, you will understand all the fuss about rock climbing. The views across the park are stunning. You will want to stay and bask in the sublime mountains, lakes and valleys of the park all day.

However, we will unfortunately have to leave at some point. Once that time arrives, we abseil back down to the base of the cliff, pack up our gear and say goodbye.

So what are you waiting for? Book now for this fun and exciting learning experience as we rock climb in the astoundingly beautiful Serra da Estrela Natural Park!

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.
