La provincia de Tarragona cuenta con algunas de las mejores zonas del mundo para la escalada deportiva. Descubre nuestra selección.
Tarragona tiene algunos de los mejores sectores de escalada de Cataluña y no en vano año tras año cada vez son más los escaladores que visitan algunos de estos míticos sitios que ofrecen buen clima, facilidad para llegar a los sectores, cortas aproximaciones, buena gastronomía, excelentes vinos locales y una gran variedad de rutas para escalar que varian en estilo y dificultad.
SIURANA: La reina de la regleta. Siurana es un paraíso de roca caliza compacta. De gran belleza natural y con más de 1600 rutas de escalada es sin dudas uno de las mejores zonas de escalada del País. Predominan las vías de alta dificultad y durante los meses de invierno es normal encontrar gran cantidad de escaladores profesionales intentando algunas de las vías más difíciles del mundo en sectores como el Pati o el Campi Qui Pugui. La mejor época para escalar en esta escuela es desde Octubre hasta fines de Abril. En Cornudella de Montsant hay una gran variedad de alojamientos disponibles y es una excelente base para escalar en Siurana y otras areas cercanas.
MARGALEF: Aquí predomina la escalada física, de bi dedos y agujeros. Roca conglomerada bastante compacta y que da lugar a desplomes y vías muy explosivas. Con aproximaciones que van dese 1 minutos hasta 30 minutos y cerca del pueblo de Margalef que cuenta con todos los servicios y abundantes opciones de alojamiento. Margalef es sin dudas uno de los sectores más populares de Cataluña y por eso debemos estar preparados para encontrar mucha gente los fin de semanas. Aquí se puede escalar todo el año, pero los meses más concurridos suelen ser los de primavera y otoño.
MONTSANT: De roca similar a Margalef pero con vías más largas y de continuidad, su sector estrella es el Raco de Misa. Se deben andar unos 40 minutos cuesta arriba para llegar a este sector, lo cual no impide que durante los meses de mejor tacto siempre este a reventar de gente. La calidad de sus vías y unas vistas privilegiadas hacen que este sector de escalada sea muy concurrido. Sin dudas vale la pena una visita y es fácilmente combinable con Siurana y Arbolí u otras zonas de los alrededores.
Para escalar en cualquiera de estas tres zonas se puede hacer base en Cornudella de Montsant. Aquí encontraras variedad de alojamientos, mercados, bares y todos los servicios. Tienes una tienda de escalada, Goma II, donde puedes encontrar todo el material que te haga falta. Lo ideal es contar con un coche para ir a las distintas zonas de escalada. Desde Cornudella tienes Siurana a 5 minutos, Margalef a 40 minutos y el Montsant a 15 minutos.

Un breve cuento sobre un viaje de escalada al icónico Verdon Gorge.
VER MASLa escalada clásica, también conocida como escalada tradicional (trad), es una de las formas más puras y completas de escalar en roca. A diferencia de la escalada deportiva, en la clásica el escalador coloca sus propios seguros durante la ascensión, en lugar de utilizar chapas fijas instaladas previamente.

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) We have spent an incredible weekend. Santi is very attentive, super good vibes and makes you feel safe at all times. It also gives enough freedom so that you have the confidence in yourself to move forward. He is very fond of him, you can tell he enjoys his work :) We have been wanting more!
(Original) Hemos pasado un fin de semana increíble. Santi es muy atento, super buen rollo y te hace sentir seguro en todo momento. También da la libertad suficiente para que tengas confianza en ti mismo para avanzar. Le pone mucho cariño, se nota que disfruta con su trabajo :) Nos hemos quedado con ganas de más!
Best Guide Ever! Seriously- we had such a fun day with Santi in Montserrat. My 3 friends from Switzerland were visiting and we all had such blast! I can truly recommend to book a tour with South Climb. Professional, fun and tons of positive energy 🙏 Thank you for everything.
(Translated by Google) I have already done several courses with Santi, he is very professional, motivating and fun. He has a lot of patience and good humor, which makes you want to learn and improve yourself. We will repeat!!!
(Original) Ya he hecho varios cursos con Santi, es muy profesional, motivador y divertido. Tiene mucha paciencia y buen humor, cosa q hace que tengas ganas de aprender y superarte. Repetiremos!!!
We had an amazing first experience thanks to Southclimb. Santi was extremely kind, helpful and attentive - he's a super friendly and dedicated instructor. We will come again and we will definitely call him back and, of course, we would recommend his services to anybody who is looking for good vibes while learning and having fun.
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) 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.
(Translated by Google) Perfect to enjoy our favorite sport wherever! professional and attentive
(Original) Perfecto para disfrutar donde sea de nuestro deporte preferido! Profesional y atento
