To the north, the Catalan Pyrenees offers endless spots for adventurous ascents, like Val D’Aran, Benasque Valley, Cavallers and the Aigüestortes National Park. There are options of 1 or several-day trips, whether you’re a first-timer or seasoned climber.

Wound up climbing with another guide from Barcelona Climb since Toti was injured but it all worked out and I had a great day climbing. Communications with Explore Share was a little slow and when asking for a refund, I wasn't getting quick answers. That the only reason for 4 instead of 5 stars.

We did the initiation course with Marc and it was beyond amazing! We learned so much and Marc really took his time to explain everything but also tied in nice climbing stories and put each situation/climbing exercise into context. Genuinely such a good person and wonderful to be around all day while out enjoying the beautiful nature. Our highest recommendation!!

A wonderful day climbing with Toti. He has a friendly demeanor, has decades of knowledge, and is comfortingly safety-minded. Best of all, as the former national coach, Toti is just the right blend of encouraging and insightful, and it was great to be pushed to improve within my comfort level. Highly recommended!

1-day private rock climbing around Montserrat, Spain

Climbing in Montserrat was an incredible adventure, set in an unparalleled location, and with a highly practiced guide! My experience with Toti was incredible, he gauged my skill level and skill set appropriately for my first-ever multi-pitch on second. The route we eventually chose was Opera Prima a route on the spire Gorro Frigi. Additionally, Toti gave me the option to retreat to a more leisurely route/traverse if I found the crux pitches too challenging. He also considered our late start, unusually warm temps, and elevation to ensure we would send in good conditions. Toti was patient as he taught me basically everything about the general procedure of multi-pitch climbing, my experience with outdoor climbing being limited to bouldering and leading only indoors. He reiterated the consequences of mistakes firmly and often twice, his tone never meant to scare me, but to ensure I understood that my safety in this scenario was entirely set upon myself in certain situations. Additionally, as we made our approach he also gave history lessons on Montserrat in both general history and climbing history as well, furthering my experience and appreciation for such a stunning location. After successfully climbing 5 pitches and abseiling/rappeling (all of these things were firsts ), Toti still took the time to take me over to the 2 pitch training area to show me how to place quickdraws, set belay ledges and rappels so I could dip my toes into learning how to lead multi-pitch myself. Honestly, I didn’t expect to get both second and lead multi-pitch experience during a single-day trip! Whether in Montserrat, the Pyrenees or wherever else Toti offers his service as a guide, I can’t recommend him enough. Go climb with Toti.

Marc was the best guide ever! I was so happy to see climbing all over Catalonia, and learn climbing terms in Spanish. With Marc's help I've tripled the longest climb I've ever done. He was knowledgeable about great spots to rest in nature in between climbs. I felt very safe on the mountain and learned how to climb safer at home. He was patient as I was late in meeting up. Climbing here was the best experience! I was so sad when in was over! 💗

I booked a private day of climbing with Toti because I really wanted to advance my climbing skills and learn from an expert with strong expertise and climbing wisdom. That is exactly what I received. Toti is incredibly wise, intuitive, and constructivist in his approach. While other guides I’ve climbed with have given me the beta: put your left foot here, put your right foot there…Toti never did that. Instead, he taught me strategy and encouraged me to find my own way. He taught me all about the importance of balance & how to achieve it. That is what I was missing as a climber, and he helped me to find it. He taught me how to be more efficient. He taught me how to push myself to my limit and how to listen to my body and know when it’s time to call it a day. He knew just how much rope to give me at any given point along the route and just what to say at the right time. I left Montserrat as a much stronger climber, and I owe it all to Toti.

Pyrenees, Spain, 7 Day Guided Climbing

Trip of a lifetime. As with all things mountains, things didn’t go exactly according to plan, weather forced changes, us tired and slow clients forced changes and roger handled these in stride and adjusted the plans seamlessly. He knew when to push and when to back off. He was incredibly knowledgeable about the mountains, history and the local plants and wildlife. I had high expectations for the trip and it was even better than I had imagined, if you’re thinking of doing a trip with Roger, I highly recommend him as a guide in whichever discipline you prefer.

Toti was totally amazing and patient and encouraging; we had three people of varying levels and he accommodated us all with great knowledge of the area (not only the history and monastery, but also local color and which routes were in the shade which was of utmost importance). Learned a lot and never climbed so fast in my life! Inspirational and humbling to see his level of fitness, experience, and dedication. Grateful to have had him as a guide and wish him the best in all future endeavors. Thanks from all of us Toti!

My 14-year-old son and I had such a great time with Marc climbing in Monserrat. Marc picked routes for us that we achievable, taught us how to belay, and encouraged us to make our way up. Since my son was able to do more than I could, Marc found a more challenging climb for him and talked him through it all the way to the top. It was such a great time. Can't wait to do it again next time we are in Spain.

I highly recommend Marc as a climbing guide! My wife and I have booked a four day multi-pitch climbing and it was fantastic! Marc has chosen beautiful routes that fit our level, teached us how to build/clean stations, how to rappel and other climbing best practices. During climbing he was very positive and helpful, always double checked our gear, placed additional quickdraws in difficult route segments and he took a lot of great photos of our climbing. We had a bad weather forecast for all 4 days of our trip, but Marc managed to find warm and dry spots to climb in these conditions. Marc also told us a lot of interesting things about Catalonia and best places to climb there. Thank you Marc for an amazing experience!

Couldn’t fault him from start to finish, I’m just jealous I didn’t get to experience it myself! If we could give him more than 5*’s, we would. Highly HIGHLY recommend. Thanks so much Carlos!

Toti Vales was the best mountain guide of all time. He was very friendly, and knowledgeable about mountain etiquette, climbing technique, and mountaineering in general. He provided gear for multipitch climbing up Sant Jeroni. It was spectacular and so enjoyable with a confident and safety-conscious guide such as Toti. He advised me on climbing conglomerate, which requires different technique to other types of rock. We also did some single pitch and climbed until the sun went down. Incredible day!

We highly recommend going climbing with Toti. He's an amazing instructor, guide and storyteller. He took us on our first multi-pitch climb and we felt equally safe and excited at all times of the climb. The route he selected was perfect for our skill level and the Montserrat scenery was majestical. Toti is a master at teaching you the right things at the right moment. He always stays relaxed which had a calming effect on us. His time management was also spot on – bringing us back to the car safely before sunset and after a full day of climbing. Thank you Toti, we hope to climb with you again soon! David & Brittany

Jordi showed me Montserrat, Siurana and Margalef. I have learned a lot since it was my first time rock climbing, also he made sure I was safe at all times. So I had a really good experience with Jordi and good communication with Marc.

The course was about having tools to solve problems on a climbing route, such as rescuing a rope partner and so on. We have finished the course and know all the necessary maneuvers and more, in order to solve any problem! Sincerely very satisfied with the course, the classmates and especially Marc Vilaplana!

Phenomenal and breathtaking experience: Marc + the Montserrat Mountains = Unforgettable climbing experience. Marc is a genuine, kind, and caring host - which added to the already fascinating landscape. A local to the area who can show you the 'ropes' to the local crag and surrounding region. With his coaching I've completed the hardest route I've done outside! Pros: - Skilled climbing instructor - Beginner friendly - Tailored climbing experience (scaled as needed) - Excellent communication on safety and techniques to execute your climbing route - Instagram worthy shots Cons: - Wishing you had more energy to climb :/ Overall Rating: 11/10 would book again Overall a must for those who want an intro to outdoor climbing, or those who already climb outdoors and want some insight into the local scene. What are you waiting for? Climb on!

I did the introductory course in sport climbing with Marc this weekend and it has been a pleasure. Level 0 game and no previous experience. Marc has been very patient and it has been a pleasure to learn from him: knots, belaying, anchors, falling well, how to climb, how to interact in this world, how to find a route... He had no problem at all lending me his equipment. At all times I felt safe and he conveys a lot of security and a very good vibe. At all times!! 100% recommended if you want to get started in this world of climbing! I'LL DO IT AGAIN!!

Marc was a fantastic guide. My wife and I spent the day with Marc in Montserrat I have climbed for several years, and have never been able to get my wife get on a wall during that time. During our recent trip to Barcelona my wife surprised me with a day of climbing in Montserrat. The highlight of the day was my wife topping out on her first outdoor climb. I think Marc's calm and encouraging personality made her feel comfortable and it provided us with a very memorable moment. Marc was also able to quickly assess my climbing level and find climbs that were a perfect fit for what I was looking for. He is a safe and knowledgable guide. Spending the day with Marc was very enjoyable and climbing in Montserrat was fabulous. So if you've never climbed before or are experienced and looking to get out on some rock during your travels Marc is your man!

I think it would be hard to give a short review about my experience with Marc. This was an experience of a life time. Marc is so knowledgeable and patient. He allowed us to ask questions about the history and culture of the towns and villages. He made me feel safe when climbing. He has so much knowledge about the mountain that he had back up routes for the weather. He went over safety a few times which made me feel that much better. He asked what type of climbing I was looking to do and customize my experience to what I wanted and needed. One of the NICEST people you will ever meet. I live in the states. Someone local to me suggested climbing with Marc. I rearranged my entire Europe vacation around climbing with Marc and I’m SO thankful I did. Best experience I’ve ever had. My friend highly recommended Marc and I HIGHLY recommend Marc. I will be back to climb with him again. I’ve already tried to figure out next steps. That is how meaningful this experience has been to me.

We had an unforgettable day climbing with Marc in Montserrat. Marc is an excellent and very experienced rock climbing guide. We felt safe throughout the entire tour and he was also very encouraging. Whether you’ve never climbed or are an experienced climber, he can adapt the climb to suit different skill levels. His tours are perfect for many tourists because he speaks English really well. Leading up to the trip, he was easy to coordinate with and when we arrived he had all the gear we needed. If you are looking to have an adventurous experience while in Spain, Marc is the right person to show you how!

Marc was a great guide for our inexperienced group - he chose great routes, quickly increasing the difficulty of what he saw we could handle, so it was never boring. He is very experienced, and speaks great english, which was very useful when asking or listening for directions in more intense situations, as there were no miscommunications. This helped a lot as some members of our group had never climbed before, but at no point we felt insecure. I would definitely hire him again if I'll find myself in that part of the world.

Marc is the perfect climbing guide: excellent communication, super professional, very safe, and highly encouraging. He has a passion for Catalonia, for climbing, and for teaching climbing skills and that shows in his knowledge and disposition. I am an experienced climber and wanted to expand my technical skills and push my limits, so I booked a 3-day multi-pitch trip that included wilderness camping. Marc created the perfect trip based around my goals. As a guide he chose locations that were perfect in that I could climb easy routes to build my confidence as well as harder ones that were appropriately challenging. As a teacher he explained methods and technical skills clearly and confidently and always made sure I felt safe. As a climbing partner he is super encouraging, giving me beta when I needed it but also allowing me the space to figure things out. I am truly a better climber after this experience, and I also got to see parts of Catalonia I wouldn’t have been able to access on my own. I highly, highly recommend Marc for first-time climbers who want to learn the basics as well as experienced climbers who want to explore and expand their skills. Thank you for everything Marc!!!

My day of climbing with Marc was the highlight of my trip to Catalunya! I felt safe the entire time because he knew what he was doing and did a great job of teaching me. It was my first time doing any multi-pitch climbing and his instructions, tips, and supervision was perfect. He speaks excellent English. Marc helped me develop a lot as a climber. He knew the ins and outs of the routes we took and made the climbing experience very tailored to me - we climbed three routes in one day and I was exhausted by the end, in the best way possible. Marc brought along a camera and took about 40 great pictures during the climb which he emailed me the same evening. I appreciated that a lot because I wanted to share the experience with my family. The views are amazing in Montserrat too and the hike up (optional) was a nice warmup and fun. You can also take the Funicular, but it starts pretty late in the morning. The rock was super really fun to climb on because of how diverse the holds were and I felt the route ratings were very accurate. Great protection, but not a lot of exposure, depending on the route (lots of low angle slab, especially at the start of routes). Marc knew the larger area too. Unfortunately, it rained on one day, but we were going to go to another mountain range, which I was very excited for, the second day. I would 100% climb again with Marc and plan to if I am ever in Spain again. It was an absolutely amazing experience in great part because of him. Thank you, Marc!

We felt completely safe climbing under his guidance. Very nice guy, we had a great time with him. He was also kind enough to capture action photos of us during the climb. Also, the location is undeniably gorgeous. It made for an unforgettable and truly life-changing experience! I absolutely would recommend Marc, to climbers of any level!!

Francesc was awesome. He brought us on our first multi pitch. He made arriving at the belay stations and eventually repelling super simple and safe feeling. The climbs he took us on we’re awesome and would have taken us hours to find if we just arrived at a new crag with a guide book (especially if the book was in Spanish) Definitely the highlight of our honeymoon.

Had a great day climbing with Carlos. He's knowledgeable about, and devoted to, the sport. I only had a single day during my trip to Spain to climb and was looking to get on some of the best sport routes in the area - and Carlos did not disappoint. As a guide he was skilled and safe, ensuring that we had a shared understanding of the safety systems. As a climbing partner he was insightful in recommending routes, providing beta, and the softest of catches. We chatted the whole time about the sport and the industry and the various features of routes. Highly recommend Carlos as a climbing guide if you're in the Barcelona area and I will definitely look him up again next time I'm in Spain without a belay.

Marc has been a crack in this rescue course, he is a professional who immediately shows confidence, with a calm temperament, without haste but without pause, who adapts to the group, very professional and who puts safety first, a quality that I consider basic in professionals who are dedicated to mountain guides. I recommend him 100%, he is also a person who creates a warm climate, very close, familiar, intrepid and restless.

Can you ask him about that? I would recommend this trip to anyone and everyone who is interested in climbing in Spain or anywhere in the world. Thanks!

Carlos is an excellent climbing instructor. Not only he has amazing climbing skills but he may be the best belayer in the world;)). He is also a great teacher, very knowledgeable, adapts to different skill levels, puts extra homework into finding routes and activities that are challenging yet enjoyable. There were two of us, with different skill levels and he managed to set up activities in a way that we have got the most of every minute. regarding the commucation: he was very quick to respond, was inquiring about what we want to get out of the trip and based.on this recommended the agenda. A very lovely guy overall. After a bit of quizzing I've learned that he climbed with some big names from Spain and UK. Oh, and he has a great crag dog - as him to bring her along:)

He was knowledgeable of the area and knew all the best climbing spots. 11/10 would recommend!
