Te contamos que es lo que debes mirar a la hora de escoger un curso de escalada en roca y cuales son nuestras recomendaciones en los alrededores de Barcelona.
La escalada es una actividad que combina aventura, deporte y naturaleza, y no hay mejor lugar para iniciarse o perfeccionarse que en los alrededores de Barcelona. Con su diversidad de paisajes y formaciones rocosas, esta región ofrece una amplia gama de cursos de escalada para todos los niveles. Pero, ¿cómo elegir el curso de escalada perfecto? Aquí te presentamos los criterios esenciales para tomar la mejor decisión.
Antes de inscribirte en un curso, evalúa honestamente tu nivel de experiencia. Los cursos de escalada suelen dividirse en:
La seguridad y la calidad de la enseñanza dependen en gran medida de los instructores. Verifica que los instructores estén certificados por organizaciones reconocidas como la Asociación Española de Guías de Montaña [AEGM]. Además, investiga su experiencia y reseñas de otros escaladores.
El tamaño del grupo puede afectar significativamente la calidad de la enseñanza y la atención personalizada que recibirás. Los cursos con grupos pequeños suelen ofrecer una mejor experiencia, permitiendo a los instructores dedicar más tiempo a cada alumno.
Verifica si el curso incluye el equipamiento necesario como arneses, cuerdas, cascos y pies de gato. Algunos cursos ofrecen todo el equipo, mientras que otros pueden requerir que lleves tu propio material. Asegúrate de saber qué está incluido para evitar sorpresas.
Compara los precios y la duración de los cursos. Los cursos más largos pueden ofrecer una experiencia más completa. Busca un balance entre calidad y costo que se ajuste a tus necesidades. Ten en cuenta que los conceptos de seguridad necesitan un tiempo de práctica supervisada.
Las opiniones de otros escaladores pueden ser una fuente valiosa de información. Investiga reseñas en línea y pregunta en foros de escalada para conocer las experiencias de otros alumnos. También puedes pedir recomendaciones a amigos o conocidos que hayan tomado cursos de escalada en la zona.
Escoger el mejor curso de escalada en los alrededores de Barcelona requiere tiempo y consideración. Al tener en cuenta tu nivel de experiencia, la certificación de los instructores, la ubicación, el tamaño del grupo, el equipamiento incluido, el precio y las opiniones de otros escaladores, podrás tomar una decisión informada y disfrutar al máximo de tu experiencia de escalada. ¡Prepárate para descubrir la emoción y la belleza de la escalada en uno de los destinos más increíbles de España!

Empezar a escalar no es tan fácil como iniciarse en deportes como el baloncesto, la natación o el running. Además de contar con el material adecuado, es necesario conocer unas maniobras básicas de seguridad, cuestiones técnicas y porque no, pautas de comportamiento, tanto si vas a escalar en el rocódromo como en la roca.

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) Hilario and I turned to SouthClimb to do a long route in Montserrat. In our case, Santiago made us an excellent guide, we recommend him and above all we will repeat the experience. He makes you feel very safe and comfortable on the wall, he explains all kinds of details, both safety and technical details of the track, he is an expert in it. Days before, he gives you all kinds of details and information, adjusting the time of the activity and the necessary material very well. Just thank him and encourage everyone who wants to discover similar experiences, he is a great person.
(Original) Hilario y yo recurrimos a SouthClimb para hacer una vía larga en Montserrat. En nuestro caso, Santiago nos hizo una guía excelente, la recomendamos y sobre todo repetiremos la experiencia. Te hace sentir muy seguro y cómodo en la pared, te explica todo tipo de detalles, tanto de seguridad, como técnicos propios de la vía, es un experto en ello. Días antes te da todo tipo de detalles e información, ajustando muy bien el tiempo de la actividad y material necesario. Solo darle las gracias y animar a todo aquel que quiera descubrir experiencias similares, es una gran persona.
(Translated by Google) 100% recommendable. Santi is a crack, and he explains himself great! Looking forward to repeat!!
(Original) 100% recomendable. Santi es un crack, y se explica genial! Con ganas de repetir!!
We had an awesome time with Mariano from South Climb! Did 2 days of guided climbing (first in Montserrat then in Gelida). It was great, he found routes that worked for both of us at our different levels (beginner and intermediate). He also had lots of tips to share to help us improve, which made the whole experience so much more valuable. Would highly recommend and would definitely come back!
(Translated by Google) Santi is one of the best guides I've met, I did the sport climbing course with him, the long route course and I also went for a couple of days to do sport climbing. He has always been very kind and friendly, the explanations he gives are clear and very useful. He knows the areas he goes to perfectly and gives very good recommendations to return there on your own.
(Original) Santi és un dels millors guies que he conegut, he fet amb ell el curs d'escalada esportiva, el de via llarga i també he anat un parell de dies a fer esportiva. Sempre ha segut molt amable i amistós, les explicacions que dona son clares i molt útils. Coneix perfectament les zones on va i dona molt bones recomanacions per tornar-hi pel teu compte.
Had an amazing time learning to multi-pitch with Santi and Mariano in Montserrat. They were patient with us and taught us everything we need. We ended the day by climbing El Gorro Frigo (5 pitches).
(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!! Conocimos Arbolí, una de las zonas más importantes de escalada de la Serra de Prades donde disfrutamos de la naturaleza y de la adrenalina por partes iguales. La monitora Sara de 10, una gran profesional que nos hizo sentir seguros en todo momento. 100% recomendable!!!
I joined the 2days-course of Sport Climbing in Siurana and Arboli. Very comprehensive learning - at the end you will be able to rock climb in complete autonomy. Super recommended!
(Translated by Google) With Santi and SouthClimb, you don't just learn how to do figure eights, how to do the gri-gri, how to be the first... You also learn what it means to be a good climber and especially accompanied by a beautiful person. Lots of love and looking forward to seeing you again soon!! // With Santi and SouthClimb you don't just learn to tie knots, use the gri-gri or go first... You learn what it means to be a good climber and above all accompanied by a beautiful person. Much love and waiting for the reunion soon!!
(Original) Amb el Santi i amb SouthClimb no només aprens a fer vuits, a fer anar el gri-gri, a fer de primer... Si no que aprens el que és ser un bon escalador i sobretot acompanyat d'una persona preciosa. Molt d'amor i amb ganes de retrobar-nos ben aviat!! // Con Santi y con SouthClimb no solo aprendes a hacer nudos, a usar el gri-gri o a ir de primero... Si no que aprendes el que es ser un buen escalador y sobre todo acompañado de una persona preciosa. Mucho amor y esperando el re-encuentro pronto!!
