Description

If you haven’t heard about Prades before, you are missing out. This natural paradise is home of some of the best rock climbing spots in Europe, and dare to say, the world! So pack up your bags and get ready for an unforgettable rock climbing adventure around Barcelona.

Some of the places we can visit in Prades include: Siurana, Margalef, Tarragona and Rodellar. Combined, all these marvellous spots host over 5,000 limestone and conglomerate routes, with superb rock quality. And each one has its own personality.

For instance, Siurana and Margalef are unrivalled when it comes to challenging routes and a wide range of shapes and styles. Those two locations host more than half the world’s 9th b grade routes.

Then Rodellar is another wonderful spot. Just a bit farther than Siurana and Margalef, this marvellous place is a paradise for those who love overhangs. Here, you can climb incredible overhangs that will take your breath away. Yet, they are not as complicated as they look, as they rank only 7th grade.

So as you can see, the options are endless. And the fun will never stop!

What’s more, as this is a private trip, not only I will ensure your safety and fun, I’ll also make sure we pick the perfect routes for you. Also, we’ll take care of all the accommodation arrangements based on your requests. And, when it comes to the food, we have many options as well. We can cook our own meals, or enjoy the exquisite spanish cuisine in the many delicious restaurants nearby.

Please note this trip is designed for 7th grade climbers. However we can adapt it to 6th grade too.

If you wish to take part of this journey, just send me a request. I promise it will be a trip you won’t forget.

Everything went exactly as planned and desired! We had a great day out climbing with Toti. He showed us around the area and gave us some great climbing tips!

Alexander

Toti was incredible! He was very accommodating and found the perfect climbs for us based on experience and skill level. He also taught us both technical and physical skills that were extremely gratifying and memorable. He also taught us a lot about the local history of Montserrat while we hiked up to our climbs, which was both educational and entertaining! We would highly recommend climbing with Toti and now the bar has been set so high.

My 2 kids and I were very happy to climb with Toti. Toti is a fenomenal climber. Seeing Toti climb and learning from him was great. Between 3 of us we had different levels of climbing experience and Toti made it fun for all of us. At the end he gave us a challenge that we couldn’t accomplish. This was exactly what we asked for. At all times we felt very safe. We got unlucky with the weather. It rained that day in Montserrat. Toti found an area that did not get rained on. We started climbing but unfortunately later it started raining in that area as well. We met with our guid at the train station. The entire time prior to the trip we communicated through the chat on the Explore- share. The only concern I had was climbing shoes for kids. But Tori had some shoes that worked for them.

Can't honestly recommend this service. The guide (not Toti) showed up on two hours of sleep and struggled to put up 7a routes, even bailing halfway up a 6c that I subsequently finished. His knowledge of the areas was years outdated, so I chose my routes from the book, and my favorite climbs were in areas he told me were out of season but turned out fine. He was Facebooking the whole time and even made an (important) call while setting up a belay. He took plenty of pictures of himself but only one of me, when I specifically requested it. The posted charge was wrong, but by then I had already paid Explore-Share, and we ended up haggling on the hike out. He was a nice guy, he went to the areas I wanted, set up the routes, ticked the holds, and caught me, but this outfit needs to up their game on all the little things that separate a climbing partner from a climbing guide.
