La Pedriza, is a geological feature, located in the Guadarrama mountain range. Here, geological forces created a labyrinth of large granite rocks and thousands of intriguing paths. Due to the many routes, turns and passages, it’s easy to get lost. That is why I will make sure we follow all the safety rules necessary, so you are safe while enjoying your time here.
Another amazing thing about hiking here is that we’ll find different options. For instance we can encounter patches where we’ll need to climb up or descend, up to 10 meters.
Moreover, the stunning boulder field is composed by a very special granite, with a characteristic pink, that is especially vulnerable to chemical erosion due to oxidation. Hence, it forms fantastic shapes and portrays dazzling shades of color, rarely found in places like this one.
Also, we’ll encounter many curious species here. Several colonies of vultures and mountain goats thrive in the Integral de la Pedriza. The entire area is encompassed by the National Park of the Sierra de Guadarrama, granted a World Heritage Site denomination. Thus, not only you’ll have the opportunity to explore a beautiful place, you’ll also learn about the local culture, the history and significance of a wonderful spot like this one.
You simply cannot miss the chance to explore Integral de la Pedriza. If you are up for this challenge, just send me a request, and let’s plan this amazing trip in Spain.

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.
