Frequently Asked Questions

What level of climbing do I need to participate in the rock climbing course?

The Climbing Baptism is ideal for getting started in rock climbing. You don't need previous climbing experience. It is even an excellent activity for those people who want to retrain in security maneuvers.


What is the course schedule?

The schedule varies depending on the time of year. We want you to have a good time and feel comfortable on the wall, that's why in winter we usually start the courses later (around 9:30-9:45 am), when the sun is already touching the wall and has raised the temperature, and in summer we start earlier (8:00 am) to be able to climb when it is cooler.


Is the material included in the courses?

Yes, in all our courses and activities we include climbing equipment, with the exception of climbing shoes.


Can I get to the meeting place by public transport?

Most climbing areas are located in areas that are difficult to access by public transportation.


How do I know where and what time to meet the guide?

Meeting times and locations vary depending on the course, activity and time of year. 72 to 48 hours before the activity we will contact you to coordinate the final details of the activity (meeting location and time).


Do I need a particular level of physical fitness?

Climbing activities require a medium level of physical fitness. It depends a lot on the specific activity. For example, an introductory climbing activity doesn't require great physical condition, but a guided multi-pitch activity at Naranjo de Bulnes will demand very good physical fitness.


Can I climb if I have vertigo?

Yes, many people come climbing with us to try to work on their vertigo.


Is accident insurance included?

Yes, all of our activities are covered by civil liability insurance and an accident policy.


In the group course, do you create the group?

Sí, nosotros nos ocupamos de proponer la fecha y crear un grupo. Los cursos grupales se realizan con un mínimo de participantes.


What dates are the private courses held?

El curso privado se puede hacer en las fechas que tu quieras siempre y cuando tengamos guías con disponibilidad. Puedes enviarnos un mensaje y miramos la disponibilidad para la fecha que tú escojas.


I want to take a course but I can't find an available date

Our courses have limited spots and often fill up well in advance. If you can't find an available date, you can contact us and we'll arrange a private course for you or let you know about upcoming group dates with availability.


Is accommodation included?

No, accommodation is not included in the rates for our courses. It is only included on trips outside of Spain. However, if you need accommodation to attend one of our courses, we can help you find the ideal place.

Client Reviews
Excellent!

(Translated by Google) I did the introductory climbing course and the experience was very rewarding. With no knowledge of climbing I felt accompanied and safe at all times. Santi is a great teacher and you can see both his passion and his involvement. Very motivational and understanding. Totally recommended even for people without knowledge or practice.
(Original) Hice el curso de iniciación a la escalada y la experiencia fué muy gratificante. Con nulos conocimientos de escalada me sentí en todo momento acompañado y seguro. Santi es un gran profesor y se le nota tanto la pasión como la implicación. Muy motivacional y comprensivo. Totalmente recomendable hasta para gente sin conocimientos ni práctica.

Santi is an amazing teacher. It is very clear that he has a lot of experience and you can ask him anything about climbing amongst other things. Santi is also super friendly and easy to get along with. I would absolutely recommend the lead-climbing course I did here. It felt very professional and complete and I think it is one of the best ones you can get. Another note; Santi made awesome pictures of us :-), thank you so much for everything!

Excellent!

Santi cared about my overall experience in Spain as much as providing me a great climbing experience. Since I am an experienced climber, Santi encouraged me to climb hard at the same time as keeping safety top of mind. You cannot ask for a better guide.

(Translated by Google) I did a ladder course to learn to go first and secure a first. Essential, super useful and practical. I have learned a lot about safety. It has helped me correct "bad vices" that I had and that can put my safety or that of my climbing partner at risk. And Santi, the instructor, a crack! He explains clearly, is patient, and is in everything. I have gained autonomy in climbing. Thank you for your dedication Santi! Recommended course 200%!
