Description

Live an unforgettable experience in La Junta, a natural paradise in the Cochamo Valley. This wonderful place will be the perfect scenario for our trekking and canyoning course. So don’t miss this unique opportunity to explore it with an expert and certified guide.

On this trekking and canyoning adventure, we’ll hike through fantastic places like the Cochamo Valley. But, we’ll also get the chance to cross thrilling spots like the Rio La Junta.

On our first day, we’ll depart from Cochamo, right by the estuary of the Reloncavi river, at 9:00 a.m. Thereon, we’ll begin ascending towards the valley until we reach La Junta. After taking in the breathtaking views we’ll set camp by the Cochamo river.

Then, we’ll use the rest of the day for our course. It includes: getting familiar with the equipment, safety protocols, progression with and without ropes, knots and rappelling techniques. But, our main goal, on top on ensuring your safety and fun, will be to encourage you to practice. Therefore, you’ll gain more confidence, and get ready for new challenges.

On the second day we’ll head to the La Junta cliff. After suiting up, we’ll venture into the canyon, to enjoy the most fun jumps, slides and rappels. And of course refresh ourselves with a good swim. We’ll end our day with a fun campfire, under a mesmerizing bed of stars. Finally, on our third day, we’ll pack our gear and head back to the city of Cochamo.

If you wish to join this adventure, don’t hesitate and send me a request. It would be my pleasure to be your guide on this chilean paradise.

About the guide

Pep

Mountain Leader

Since I was a child, my life has been jumping, swimming, flying, climbing, sliding and running down the mountain, dreaming that someday this would become my profession so I could share my sensations, experiences and acquired knowledge.

I have spent more than fifteen years working and travelling in Spain (Pyrenees), Italy (Dolomites), Chamonix (Alps), Morocco (Atlas), Kyrgyzstan (Pamir) and currently in Chile (Patagonia). A long time teaching and helping others out in the mountains!

I am an AEGM certified guide (Spanish Association of Mountain Guides), a UIMLA Mountain Leader (Union of International Mountain Leader Associations) and an ISIA certified instructor (International Association of Ski Instructors).

I like to guide small groups and to offer tailor-made trips. So I customize my programs to the wishes and needs of the client. My goal is to provide a high quality service while of course having a good time with my clients.

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.
