Climbing is an activity that combines adventure, sport, and nature, and there's no better place to start or improve than around Barcelona. With its diverse landscapes and rock formations, this region offers a wide range of climbing courses for all levels. But how do you choose the perfect climbing course? Here are the essential criteria to make the best decision.
Before enrolling in a course, honestly assess your level of experience. Climbing courses are usually divided into:
Ensure that the course matches your level to get the most out of it.
Safety and the quality of teaching largely depend on the instructors. Check that the instructors are certified by recognized organizations such as the Spanish Association of Mountain Guides (AEGM). Also, research their experience and reviews from other climbers.
Group size can significantly affect the quality of teaching and the personalized attention you'll receive. Courses with smaller groups often provide a better experience, allowing instructors to spend more time with each student.
Check if the course includes the necessary equipment such as harnesses, ropes, helmets, and climbing shoes. Some courses provide all the gear, while others may require you to bring your own. Make sure you know what is included to avoid surprises.
Compare the prices and duration of the courses. Longer courses can offer a more comprehensive experience, but you also need to consider your budget and availability. Look for a balance between quality and cost that suits your needs.
Reviews from other climbers can be a valuable source of information. Research online reviews and ask in climbing forums to learn about the experiences of other students. You can also ask for recommendations from friends or acquaintances who have taken climbing courses in the area.
Choosing the best climbing course around Barcelona requires time and consideration. By considering your level of experience, the certification of the instructors, the location, the group size, the included equipment, the price, and the reviews of other climbers, you can make an informed decision and get the most out of your climbing experience. Get ready to discover the thrill and beauty of climbing in one of Spain's most incredible destinations!

(Translated by Google) I decided to give my 8 and 10 year old children a climbing baptism for the whole family and it has been a brutal experience!! We got to know Arbolí, one of the most important climbing areas in the Serra de Prades where we enjoyed nature and adrenaline in equal parts. The monitor Sara de 10, a great professional who made us feel safe at all times. 100% recommendable!!!
(Original) Decidí regalarle a mis hijos de 8 y 10 años un bautismo de escalada para toda la familia y ha sido una experiencia brutal!!

(Translated by Google) I've started climbing through @southclimb and it's been a wonderful journey. Thank you Santi for everything you have learned, for motivating us to continue growing, for transmitting values to us, for highlighting our small achievements and for the laughter, which is also important. Apart from being a great professional, a great person.
(Original) Me he iniciado en la escalada a través de @southclimb y está siendo un viaje maravilloso. Gracias Santi por todo lo aprendido, por motivarnos a seguir creciendo, a transmitirnos valores, por realzar nuestros pequeños logros y por las risas, que también son importantes.

(Translated by Google) A great professional and very nice

(Translated by Google) A unique experience next to a great professional. The fear management course makes you spend a weekend connecting with yourself, nature, you meet new crazy companions... and always all the exercises safely next to a very close psychologist. For me, an experience of 10, where (regardless of the level you have) it is useful to stop grabbing the rock with your teeth and enjoy the fluidity and the fall, since it is part of climbing.
(Original) Una experiencia única al lado de un gran profesional. El curso de gestión del miedo te hace pasar un fin de semana de conexión contigo, la naturaleza, conoces nuevos compañeros de locuras… y siempre todos los ejercicios de forma segura al lado de una psicologa muy cercana. Para mi, una experiencia de 10, donde (tengas el nivel que tengas) es útil para dejar de cogerte a la roca con los dientes y disfrutar de la fluidez y de la caída, ya que forma parte de la escalada.
(Translated by Google) A few hours of very pleasant climbing in Arbolí with the children. Great success, with a great time.
