La vía Carles al Gorro Frigi es una de las vías más repetidas de esta zona de Montserrat. Su generoso equipamiento, grado asequible y vistas espectaculares la convierten en una de las grandes clásicas del macizo.
Para acceder a la tenemos dos opciones: la primera es subir por las escaleras hasta la plaza de Santa Anna y desde aquí ir dirección al funicular de Sant Joan, unos 50 minutos desde el Monasterio, y la segunda es subir en el funicular de sant Joan y desde allí recorrer el camino que en 10 minutos nos deja bajo el Gorro Frigi.
La vía recorre la cara sureste del Gorro Frigi. Son 180 mts de puro disfrute y con una sola sección que aprieta un poquito más en el 3er largo sección de 5+). El resto de la vía promedia el 4+/5to grado.
La vía esta completamente equipada. Se puede escalar con tan solo 10 cintas express y todas las reuniones estan equipadas. La gran mayoría de las reuniones son rapelables.
Gracias a su orientación es una vía que se puede escalar prácticamente durante todo el año. En los meses más fríos es ideal escalar por la mañana cuando el sol calienta la pared y en verano la vía entra en sombra a partir de las 3 de la tarde aproximadamente.
Desde su distintiva cumbre con la cruz en la cima, visible desde la abadía de Montserrat, se goza de una gran vista de 360 grados pudiendo divisar gran parte de la geografía catalana.
Con cuerdas dobles de 60 mts solo tendremos que hacer dos rapeles para llegar al suelo y desde aquí solo resta bajar hasta el camino de Sant Jeroni y regresar al monasterio. Si vamos con cuerda simple es posible bajar en tres rapeles por la misma linea de rapeles.

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) Bua the fear management course in very very top climbing. We all left highly motivated and with a lot of tools to continue working. Santi is a person who gives a lot of confidence and transmits absolute tranquility and affection. 100% I will do a course again!

(Translated by Google) A very good experience! The truth is that climbing with Santi I learned many things and had even more fun. The explanations were very practical and useful. I wanted to repeat the experience and continue learning. Thank you!

My goal coming to Spain was to get out for a couple days rock climbing with my family. I’m a fairly accomplished climber but the mechanics of trying to take the family out on my own. Mariano our guide was the perfect example of what a guide should be, he was quick to set up and take down the climbs, had the perfect eye for challenging but achievable routes for the family, was friendly, great with the kids, a just an all around good guy. I can’t recommend this company enough, and am already planning my return trip to Spain to climb with them.
(Translated by Google) This has been an incredible experience. From the beginning, the instructor gave me confidence and security both in the explanations that were very clear, and then when practicing climbing. You end up feeling like you've been climbing for a long time, even if it's your first time. We will repeat.
(Original) Ha esta una experiència increíble. Des del principi el monitor m'ha trasmès confianza i seguretat tant en les explicacions que han estat molt clares, com desprès a l'hora de practicar l'escalada. Acabes amb la sensació de que portes molt de temps fent escalada, encara que sigui la primera vegada que ho fas. Repetirem.
