Description

I invite you to join me on this beautiful, thrilling, and most of all enjoyable half-day of rock climbing in Puerto Rico, as we climb and abseil on the massive limestone cliff faces at Caliche (Ciales), a rock climbing mecca located in the middle of a gorgeous and green vegetation-strewn valley, with the mighty Manati River flowing nearby.

Ciales is a Puerto Rican municipality located on the Central Mountain Range of the country, and is best known for its coffee and cattle farming, its numerous festivals and events held throughout the year, and its abundance of tree-lined mountains and valleys.

We will initially meet in Ciales itself, where we will run through all relevant safety gear and procedures, as well as any other general information.

We then head to the rock climbing area, and the massive limestone crag that shoots up in to the sky from the valleys is quite impressive and awe-inspiring, with more than 40 different climbing routes for us to choose from.

This wide variety of routes means it can cater to people of all levels of ability, from beginners through to experts.

The views from the limestone rock faces can best be described as epic, with the valley and river stretching out beneath us, creating an idyllic and lovely setting in which to climb.

After a half-day of fun climbing, we then finish up, hopefully having made you want to come back and explore more of this beautiful part of Puerto Rico, as well as continue with the highly addictive activity of rock climbing.

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.
