Description

Welcome to a very interesting rock climbing course for beginners in Santa Clara, an Amazon region in the northeast of Ecuador.

It's my pleasure to invite you to this introductory course in Santa Clara. It will take 1 or 2 days, according to your wishes and expectations. I think it is a perfect occasion for those who want to take their first steps in rock climbing. Moreover, if you're are curious and want to feel the excitement of climbing a rocky wall in a natural environment, this is your chance!

When you start rock climbing you start to use your body and many other muscles you didn't even know existed. And the higher you climb the funnier it is. But you must have some basic knowledge to do it in a safe way. That's why I have planned this course in Santa Clara.

This workshop starts with the basic principles of rock climbing, knots, top rope and assurance techniques between two people. That way you will gain some confidence before the most important part of the course.

The other stage is to put into practice what you've learned. So, you will climb a vertical wall applying all the theoretical concepts and by the end of the course, you will be ready to pass a belay test of rock gym.

Now, you will be confident enough to move on to the next stage. That's why, after this program, you can continue improving your techniques through this 6-day mountaineering course I am also leading.

So, contact me now so we can discuss and plan your next rock climbing learning day in Santa Clara.

As a climber, she has summited peaks in the Andes, Perú, Bolivia, Colombia, climbing around USA, etc. Juliana has achieved a lot in her climbing career so far with the most distinguished of her successes being the opening of a new route (together with Joshua Jarrin) in the Peruvian Andes: HK, on the North face of East Huandoy, with difficulties of TD+ V+ M3/4. This route was included in the 2012 list of climbs chosen by the organization “Piolet d’ Or” (Golden Ice Ax), 2013 edition.

About Fátima:

I've been going to the mountains since I was 11. Constant contact with nature has given me a different perspective on life. When I heard that being a mountain guide was a profession, I immediately wanted this. So I started the training in 2020. Contact me if you wish to discover Ecuador, its mountains, climbing places, and hikes.

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.

Joshua

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.
