Description

I will guide you on this exquisite 3-day hike to the local villages in the Sierra de Bahoruco National Park, from Paraiso, a fun and fascinating adventure where we will encounter lush green rainforests, rolling hills and valleys, tranquil clear waterways and a huge array of native Dominican flora and fauna, all located between the towering mountains and the Caribbean Sea.

Sierra de Bahoruco National Park is located in the Southwest of the Dominican Republic, and is renowned as being one of the most richly biodiverse places in the country, with many native species of flora and fauna calling the park home, such as more than 130 species of bird.

Our trip begins in the village of Paraiso, and from there we spend the day hiking up to the village of Cachote, passing coffee plantations and small communities along the way, whilst also being exposed to magnificent views back out over the valleys and the coast.

After a night in Cachote, day 2 is dedicated to hiking towards Polo, and this entails walking along several difficult trails that wind up and down hillsides whilst crossing rivers, trekking through forests and fields and learning more about the local inhabitants.

Our 3rd and final day is when we head to Paraiso, and over the course of this day there will ample opportunity to refresh and cool off in the natural pools that populate the area, as you will need it after trekking through many more valleys and agricultural fields.

Once we reach Paraiso our adventure ends, hopefully satisfied at having witnessed some of the best scenery in the country, and having enjoyed ourselves doing it.

This is a glorious way to explore the Dominican countryside – book now to experience the beauty!

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.
