VIA PATXARAN, CONGOSTO DE VENTAMILLO

Una mañana de escalada express en una vía ultra clásica e imprescindible del Congosto de Ventamillo.

La Vía Patxaran esta ubicada en la pared central del Congosto de Ventamillo. Es una vía de corte deportivo, bien equipada con parabolts y todos sus largos son excelentes, destacando especialmente el 4to largo de 6c. 

Largo 3 de la vía Patxaran.
Largo 3 de la vía Patxaran.

Aproximación

Desde el parking (justo antes de cruzar el túnel) caminar en dirección a Benasque, con mucho cuidado por la carretera, hasta ver el pequeño puente metálico que cruza el río. Una vez cruzamos el río seguir el sendero hasta pie de vía. 

Ficha Técnica

  • Dificultad: 7a (6b Oblg)
  • Material necesario: 18 cintas express (algunas bagas savineras para salir por arriba)
  • Longitud: 175 mts

Descripción por largos.

L1 - 6b/+ - Largo de entrada en calor y muy bonito con movimientos más bien técnicos.

L2 - 7a - Salida un poco a bloque y un pasito técnico, luego terreno más fácil.

L3 - 6c+ - Largo atletico y fisico en una fisura desplomada. Excelente.

L4 - 6c - El largo estrella de la vía. Diedro técnico y pasos muy aereos. Brutal.

L5 - 6a - Un poco sucio.

Observaciones

Vía excelente, super clásica. Ideal para una tarde de verano. El sol pega en la pared casi toda la mañana. El largo 3 y 4 son excelentes. Se podría bajar por la vía gestionando  correctamente los rapeles, pero si sales a la cumbre es mejor bajar por los rapeles de ventamillo. Ni bien llegas a la cumbre, caminas hacia tu izquierda siguiendo un sendero poco marcado y verás un hito que marca el inicio de los rapeles.,

Recuerda que si quieres escalar esta vía o cualquier otra vía con total seguridad, puedes ponerte en contacto con nosotros y reservar una fecha.

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!

¡Excelente!

(Translated by Google) In August I climbed two long routes in the Pyrenees with Santi, "Tanger" in Collegats and the next day "El Rap del Niño" in Cavallers. A fantastic experience and the best guide to get back to climbing after a break of almost a year due to injury. 100% recommended :)
(Original) En agosto escalé con Santi dos vías largas en el Pirineo, "Tanger" en Collegats y al día siguiente "El Rap del Niño" en Cavallers. Una experiencia fantástica y el mejor guía para volver a escalar después de un parón de casi un año debido a una lesión. 100% recomendado :)
