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.

Santi is the best mountain guide in the area, hands down. His knowledge of the local terrain and technical expertise made for an incredible experience. Safety was clearly a top priority, but he also knows exactly how to push you to reach those rewarding summits and hidden spots you’d never find on your own.

Excellent!

(Translated by Google) I have done the initiation course and I liked it a lot, because of the content, relaxed atmosphere and at the same time serious in relation to safety. I will surely sign up for more activities!

Excellent!

(Translated by Google) Take the long route course: two days, the first one took us to combat Montserrat, where we went from a theoretical explanation with exercises in the place to climbing and practicing what we saw. At all times checking and explaining why we do what we do at each stage. Day two: straight to one of the caps, where we immediately began to climb applying what we had learned with a long route of multiple meetings. You finish the course with not only tools to be able to do it alone, but with a way of thinking when it comes to Set up your rappelling or your meetings to be able to adapt to any situation! Super recommended and the best predisposition of Santi!! Super serious, and always very clear with each step we took.
(Original) Tome el curso de vía larga: dos dias, el primero nos llevó a combato Montserrat, donde pasamos de un explicación teórica con ejercicios en el lugar a escalar y practicar lo visto. En todo momento chequeando y explicando el porqué hacemos lo que hacemos en cada etapa. Día dos: directo a uno de los gorros, donde inmediatamente empezamos a subir aplicando lo aprendido con una vía larga de múltiples reuniones. Terminas el curso con no solo herramientas para poder hacerlo solo, sino con una forma de pensar a la hora de Montar tu rapel o tus reuniones para poder adaptarte a cualquier situacion! Súper recomendable y la mejor predisposición de Santi!! Súper serio, y siempre muy claro con cada paso que dimos.

(Translated by Google) I did the long route course with Santi and the experience was excellent, with great emphasis on safety and all the factors to take into account when planning a long route and the necessary manoeuvres. The practice day left us to work and find our way on our own, intervening when necessary and always keeping a watchful eye that everything was done safely. Always with good humor and good treatment, which is not less in situations of nerves and tension. Thank you so much!
(Original) Hice el curso de vía larga con Santi y la experiencia fue excelente, con mucho énfasis en la seguridad y todos las factores a tener en cuenta para planificar una vía larga y las maniobras necesarias. El día de práctica nos dejó trabajar y buscar camino solos, interviniendo cuando era necesario y manteniendo siempre una mirada atenta a que todo esté hecho de manera segura. Siempre con buen humor y buen trato, que no es menor en situaciones de nervios y de tensión. Muchas gracias!
