Description

Are you looking for a canyoning program for beginners? Then come visit the Spanish comarca of La Vera and discover the fantastic Garganton canyon. You won’t regret your choice!

Canyoning combines the pleasure of exploring a remote wilderness area with the excitement of sliding into the water and jumping into natural pools. If you have little experience or have never tried this activity, don’t miss this amazing chance in the Garganton canyon.

On this half-day trip, we’ll hike for 30 minutes from our starting point and reach the beginning of the canyon. As we move forward into the route, we’ll notice the difficulty increases little by little. For this reason, it’s a great opportunity to get started with canyoning and learn its basics concepts. On the way, we’ll find several rappelling sections of up to 15 meters.

If you’re planning to take part of this adventure, keep in mind that it has a duration of 4-6 hours and that the best time to come is from March to July. Also, we’ll cover a distance of around 800 meters and face an elevation gain of 180 meters.

So are you ready for a wonderful canyoning adventure in La Vera? Then all you have to do is send the request to make your reservation and we’ll start preparing for this half-day program.

I also organize a canyoning program for beginners in Los Hoyos, in Valle del Jerte. Check it out!

Mountain Leader

I am the founder of Enjoy Gredos and a UIMLA-certified mountain leader affiliated to the AEGM (Spanish Mountain Guide Association). Sierra de Gredos is my home, I know its paths and trails like the back of my hand but its beauty never ceases to amaze me.

My passion for the mountains has taken me all over Spain, including the Pyrenees, Picos de Europa, Sierra Nevada, Sierra de Guardarrama, and to some of the Earth's major mountain ranges, including the Alps and the Himalayas. But I always come back to my beloved Gredos! Join me and discover this beautiful region with me.

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.
