  • Open to climbers of every skill level.

Description

At 2,132 meters in height, the 3 Salazes ridge is an amazing place to rock climb in Réunion Island. Located between the Cilaos and Mafate cirques, with 3 stunning volcanic rock spires perched on top, the 3 Salazes ridge is a glorious rock formation. The views you’ll enjoy—not just from the top, but all along the ridge—are absolutely tremendous and will provide plenty of opportunities to admire the lush Réunion Island landscape.

Despite its height and dramatic exposure, the 3 Salazes route is accessible to anyone in good physical condition. It combines rock climbing, zip lines, rappelling, and a dizzying ridge traverse, offering a unique and thrilling experience. No prior climbing experience is required, although participants should be athletic, motivated, and not too afraid of heights. The activity is open to anyone from age 12 and up.

The trip includes a 2.5-hour approach hike through local vegetation, followed by several hours of climbing and rope activities on the sharp ridge. The total duration is around 10 hours, with departure at 3:30 a.m. and return around 2:30 p.m.. Photos and drone images are included to help capture this unforgettable adventure.

With so many great rock climbing options to choose from on Réunion Island, it can be hard to pick one. But climbing the 3 Salazes with a certified mountain guide is an experience you will never forget. To join this full-day adventure, simply send a request. We look forward to guiding you!

What people are saying about Explore-Share

Man

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!

Maxine

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.
