La Pedriza is a geological park with granitic outcrops, visited by climbers from all over the world. On this day trip I will take you to El Pajaro, one of its most important crags. Join me for an amazing rock climbing day!
Just an hour north of Madrid, La Pedriza is located on the southern slopes of the Guadarrama Mountains. It has numerous peaks, rocky cliffs, meadows and streams. The Risco del Pájaro monolithic is visible from different points, and is probably its most famous spot.
In El Pájaro there are bolted routes for all levels. These are some of the options that we can try, depending on your skills and your wishes:
– West Face: Classic West (or Peñalara).
– South Face: Classic South.
– East Face: Classic East (or Pedro Ramos).
For this day trip you need to have rock climbing experience and a a good fitness level. Of course, I will help you all along the way!
So, if you want to explore one of the best granite climbing areas in Spain, please contact me. I’ll be glad to guide you through the stunning routes of El Pájaro, in La Pedriza!
I also offer a 2-day rock climbing trip in Mallos de Riglos: check it out!

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.
