Learn the most important mountain techniques on this two-day introductory course. This trip is organized for you to learn new mountaineering skills and test them on the same trip! Besides, we’ll get to enjoy the beautiful Spanish landscapes.
Depending on the time of the year, weather, and location of the clients, we can do the course in Aralar, Valdezcaray or Sierra de Urbasa in Navarra, in Ezcaray (La Rioja), in Alto Campoo (Cantabria) or in the Pyrenees.
Learning the basic mountain techniques allows us to act in nature, taking into consideration the equipment we count with. If you love the outdoors and any type of activity on the mountains, it is extremely important to undergo a course that will allow you to safely enjoy nature.
During these two days, we’ll learn about the different types of bivouacs and ways to light a bonfire as well as how to guide yourself with signs, maps and a compass. I’ll also teach you some basis of knots making, movements on rock, use of equipment and proper clothing.

Mountain Leader
UIMLA Mountain Leader from Spain
As a guide, I like when my clients enjoy and have an active participation, so they can learn to be autonomous in the risk management. With the security as a priority, the client can develop as a mountaineer.
That's why among the activities I offer as a mountain leader, I also have formation courses and free talks about security.

Thank you explore-share for a wonderful via feratta experience. We have been wanting to learn for a long time but don't have the facilities in Scotland. The guide Mitja was extremely helpful and knowledgeable, answering all my many questions and providing advice. On the day head to take another group but he quickly arranged another guide Borut, who was brilliant. We had a fantastic morning learning via ferrata at Hvadnik in the gorge. It gave us the confidence to later hire our own equipment and go out in Mojstrana. Altogether a five star + experience. Thank you.
Stay up-to-date on the best adventures.
