Description
Rock climbing can seem intimidating, especially if you’ve never tried it before. But this sport is surprisingly accessible if you know where to begin, and I would love to show you the ropes on this 3-day course for beginners!
Our course will take place at the Llano climbing school in Quirós, located in the north of Spain, in the Principality of Asturias**.** This historic region’s landscapes lend themselves perfectly to rock climbing and are home to some of the best sport climbing spots in the country.
First, we’ll learn the most important and essential techniques of rock climbing and all the safety procedures we’ll have to take once we start. Then, on our second day, we’ll put our knowledge into practice and experience our first climb. Finally, on our third and last day, we’ll practice some more challenging climbs and each participant will be evaluated. For a more detailed description of the trip, take a look at the itinerary below!
Regarding our accommodation, we’ll stay at the Casa Rural Corrada de Torales which will be the ideal place to rest after a fun and challenging day of climbing.

What people are saying about Explore-Share
Man
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!
Maxine
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.
