Rock Guide

Guatapé, Colombia

I´m a local Climber settled next to the big rock "El Peñol" that loves setting new routes to share with the community around the World. Adherence and slap technique has developed my skills and it is what I try to share and communicate as a guide. I have been living and guiding in this region for about 7 years but my experience as a climber comes from adolescence, more than 15 years. I lead some environmental processes that pretend better management of this rock and the recognition of its history. I'm the founder of Corporación de Escalada de Antioquia, a non-profit entity in charge of the conservation and management of the Peñol climbing park.

There were a lot of other people out climbing as well which made it more memorable. The weather is very unpredictable, I reccomend this activity during the dry season. The rock is very slabby with minimal handholds. All in all it was a ton of fun and the views are breathtaking. Although it did start raining while we were on the wall and did not ascend to the top.5

Sergio was an amazing guide! He is clearly passionate about climbing and making outdoor adventures accessible to people of every ability level. Hearing my goals, he was willing to balance risk with safety and allowed me to have the experience I wanted while climbing in Guatape. He is also very responsive via WhatsApp, which is important when navigating unpredictable weather conditions. Don’t be deterred by rainy conditions – the rock dries astonishingly fast after storms. If you’re willing to give up a little skin on your fingertips, I fully recommend climbing el Penol, rather than taking the stairs.

Sergio made everything possible for us as a family to have a relaxing and great climbing day.
