La vía C.A.D.E. a la Agulla del Centenar es una de las grandes clásicas de la geografía Montserratina.
Se encuentra en una zona muy sombría de Montserrat por lo cual es una vía ideal para los meses de calor, aunque también se debe mencionar que es un sitio bastante humedo y en pleno verano se siente en bochorno. Los primeros 20/30 mts del primer largo, son un poco de tramite tirando de cintas, o al menos para mi que prefiero no arriesgar a caer sobre estos buriles de hace 50 años. Creo que en libre la vía sale en 7b. Si prefieres tirar de cintas tendras que escalar al menos tramos de 5+/6a. Una vez superado este largo, la vía se convierte en una fiesta de diedros y fisuras a proteger. cabe destacar el segundo y el cuarto largo. Realmente muy bonitos.

Desde el parking de Can Macana sigue las indicaciones al refugio Vicenc Barbera. Una vez pasada la valla de madera tienes un camino muy marcada que sale a la derecha y otro a la izquierda. Seguir el de la izquierda dirección a la Cadireta. Pasada la Cadireta, unos 400 metros encontramos un camino ascendente a mano derecha que lleva al Coll del Porc, seguir este camino hasta tener la pared muy cerca. Llegaremos a una intersección con un camino que va a la derecha y otro a la izquierda. Ir a la izquierda 50 mts y encontraras un pequeño corredor descompuesto que sube hacia la pared. Cerca de la pared debes empezar a desviarte hacia la derecha y bordear la pared. Encontraras una cuerda fija a un árbol, seguir unos metros mas y estas a pies de vía.
Desde la cumbre se puede hacer un corto rapel o bajar destrepando por una canal hacía la cara sur. Una vez abajo buscamos unas marcas azules y las seguimos hacia la derecha ( el camino asciende inicialmente). Seguimos estas marcas hasta llegar a la canal ampla. Desde este punto bajar al refugio Vicenc Barbera y seguir el camino bien marcado hasta el parking de Can Maçana.
Una vía imprescindible para los amantes de las fisuras y la escalada clásica. La roca es bastante buena con excepción de algunos tramos específicos. Super recomendable.

(Original) 100% recomendable. Santi es un crack, y se explica genial! Con ganas de repetir!!
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!
(Translated by Google) A climbing baptism is one of those moments that are not forgotten. Perfect as a gift for my children. Santi has helped us with a lot of patience and professionalism and we have all learned a little. Challenge completed! Thank you!
(Original) Un bautizo de escalada es de esos momentos que no se olvidan. Perfecto como regalo para mis hijos. Santi nos ha ayudado con mucha paciencia y profesionalidad y todos hemos aprendido un poco. Reto superado! Gracias!
(Translated by Google) I did a long route with Santi, a real experience. I had a great time, I felt very safe all the time and I would very much like to repeat it one day with better weather and visibility!
(Original) Hize una vía larga con Santi, una verdadera experiencia. Lo pasé súper bien, me sentí muy en seguridad durante todo el tiempo y me gustaría mucho repetirlo un día con mejor tiempo y visibilidad!
Great experience. Santi arranged and communicated all the logistics very well. Giordano was a great instructor and made the experience fun and comfortable. Will recommend Southclimb.
Santi is the best climbing guide you can imagine. As a reference, we two are 6a-7a climbers, but we wanted a local guide to help maximize efficiency in a foreign area. He was highly recommended to us by a friend who Santi guided a few months back, and he was as wonderful as described. He takes his role as Guide seriously and comprehensively, from helping you plan ideas for areas to concentrate on, considerations of weather and season, logistics for where to stay and how to get there (he picked us up one day, and we met him in our car another), as well as making himself available to help with any other questions or needs for the trip as a whole (not just the climbing part). Our long chain of detailed texts show how dedicated and sincere he is in wanting to help plan the best trip possible for you. This was highly unique, unexpected, above and beyond, and much appreciated. Before you've even met, he treats you more like a friend coming to visit Spain than a client that he is just doing business with, and that warmth goes a long way and sets him apart from most any other guide I've experienced (i've had great guides in my life, so this just reinforces Santi's particularly special character). Like I really felt like we were friends, and still feel like we are, as he reaches out and keeps in touch still and I really appreciate that relationship. Humanity, sincerity, and kindness in business--what a crazy (wonderful) concept! As a climbing guide specifically: he is consummately professional, impressively knowledgable and safe, as well as comfortingly sensitive to your climbing abilities and needs, and tailors each day with climbs that are perfect for you--if you want to be comfortable or if you want a little/big challenge, if you want to experience highlights of an area by switching up crags in the same day. He knows the areas so well and of course knows how to choose the walls that are in the shade or in the sun for whatever time of day or season you are climbing. There is so much variety and fun for either multi or single pitch too. In addition, when we were all climbed out for the day, he took the opportunity to show us the beauty of the local areas, playing also a photographer and travel guide. He also went home to let us borrow his guide book to other areas that we were headed to later, and kept in touch to make sure the rest of our trip went smoothly. So nice! Here is a person who treats his job as a climbing guide and ambassador for the area with such deep consideration and earnestness, and who treats his role as a human being with exceptional kindness and faith. We are so grateful that he came into our lives as a climbing guide and as a friend. Thank you Santi for being you, and please everyone call him now for any guiding adventures (he travels to guide too!) Also, his rates are so fair and reasonable. And you will be so happy if he is available to take you on an adventure with him! Cheers!
(Translated by Google) Totally recommended for everyone. Undoubtedly the best way to learn all the theory and technique starting from scratch, safely. Santi you are a crack!! Thank you for sharing your knowledge and entering a new world to discover 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
(Original) Totalmente recomendable para todo el mundo. Sin duda la mejor forma de aprender toda la teoría y técnica partiendo de cero, de forma segura. Santi eres un crack!! Gracias por compartir tus conocimientos y adentrarme en un nuevo mundo por descubrir 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
I organised a 4hr climbing session in Siurana for 10 children (mostly aged 8-9) and Santi was super easy to communicate with and organise everything remotely. He arranged 2 guides, all the equipment, safe briefing and everything you would need for a half day of fun climbing. The kids really enjoyed themselves and learnt so much along the way. Some were beginners, others had climbed before and the guides were very helpful and supportive. I highly recommend Southclimb and we can’t wait to go climbing with them again.
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.
I had an amazing time here. It was only my second time climbing outdoors and I didn’t really know what to expect. Santi, the guide, paced the difficulty of the routes really well so I was able to progress each day. This trip exceeded all my expectations.
