Description
Nestled above the stunning shores of Lake Garda at the foot of the Italian Alps, Arco is home to some world-class rock climbing!
Over the course of three days, we will explore as much of the great rocky crags and pitches that we can!
If you have previous experience climbing in a gym or on simple rock climbing routes, then this trip is perfect for you.
After meeting up in the lovely little town of Arco di Trento, we will spend our first day together going over all of the basic techniques as well as how to belay in preparation for the next two days.
These days will be the highlight of the trip as we start out with some crag climbing on the second day. This will soon transition into a bit of lead sport climbing, belaying and toprope building, before we finish off the day with abseiling.
On the final day, we will head out and put all of these newly acquired skills to the test, making various ascents and enjoying the stunning views that we will find all around us.
So what are you waiting for? Book now for this fun and informative 3-day rock climbing experience in the stunning scenery of Arco di Trento, above the shores of lovely Lake Garda!
If you like the look of this trip then I think you will also enjoy my 3-day via ferrata climbing adventure, also in Arco!

About the guide
Born in the Austrian Alps, the connection to the mountains was there from early on. Started skiing as a 3 year old kid, bit later climbing and mountaineering stepped in my live. Skiing and climbing all over the Alps and abroad became a huge part of my life.
One of my favorite places in the Alps are the mountains around Chamonix and Zermatt. Since graduating as a fully-certified Mountain guide, I’ve been able to share my passion for skiing and climbing with my guests. When I’m not guiding I try to push my personal limits in climbing and mountaineering. Looking forward reaching summits together.

We planned a trip to the grossglockner early August this year with Daniel. On arrival in Austria the weather turned bad with nearly 24/7 rain and thunder in between so we wouldn\'t reach the peak. The guide proposed to go sportclimbing indoors, or go a week later, communication was fast and clear. We didn\'t have a week so decided to cancel the trip, for which Daniel offered a partial refund. Have a look at Daniel\'s website for detailed information on gear, route and requirements. Once back in our home country we couldn\'t get in touch anymore, but Explore-Share took over communication and solved remaining issues. Hope to finish this ascent sometime in the future with better weather conditions, and good luck to Daniel!

Daniel made our two day guided ascent to the summit of Großglockner an incredible and unforgettable experience. Daniel provided us with quality gear and kept us well informed throughout the whole expedition in terms of the route, weather conditions and safety precautions. Daniel’s communication skills were fantastic and he spoke perfect English. We were very thankful that Daniel gave us a second attempt at the summit after having to turn back on our first attempt due to bad weather (Daniel’s judgement of the conditions was great and we had full confidence in his decision to turn back to ensure safety). The summit was absolutely amazing and we had a lot of fun and good laughs with Daniel. We hope we can book Daniel for another trip soon, Danke!!

Daniel guided us safely to Matterhorn summit via Hörnli Ridge. We visited Swiss and Italian summits and then headed back to Hörnli Hut. In very good conditions this whole trip took us just approx. 8 hours. Daniel is a very strong and skilled climber – he knows the route, gives good insight on how to climb each section and is continuously aware during short roping to prevent a possible slip. Just understand that Matterhorn climb is a very intense effort - there\'s not awfully lot of time for taking photos, admiring the views or relaxing during the climb.
