What people are saying about -Kookoo Climb
These guys are amazing had such a good week climbing with Kookoo. I’d highly recommended booking a holiday with these guys.
Great climbing community, food was yummy, company was lovely and the climb was excellent! Thank you Xavi and Mára for organising a beautiful and memorable trip!
I had an amazing experience with KooKoo! A wonderful weekend full of climbing in the nature with amazing people! Thanks for all the advice that you gave me to get better in my climbing ! looking forward for the next adventure!
Thanks to KooKoo climb for organising an epic trip in Costa Blanca,Spain!! There were so many sport climbing crags to choose from with mixture of leading and seconding as suited, the guides found some in shade even in June the warm months it was possible to climb most of the day. One day of climbing in a costal sea cave was really incredible, and the multipitch on Pechon Il Fach was spectacular!! Food by cook Yessica and the accommodation in Abdet great too.
A trip to remember. After climbing indoors for a few months I thought I would take the next step and venture to the outdoors with trip away with KooKoo climb. After discussing my needs, wants for the trip and my level of climbing with KooKoo climb I was recommenced to join for a trip to Costa Blanca and it did not disappoint. Having this experience has changed my perception and knowledge of what climbing outdoors entails. After this I have fallen in love with climbing outdoors and I already plan to go back to climb in Spain. Feeling completely supported by our guide Mara, not only did I push myself beyond what I thought was my level of ability but I have began to build confidence and have learned new skills which I can now take with me in future climbs.
