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

(Translated by Google) A great climbing day!
(Original)Un dia d'escalada genial!
Just finished the 2-day multi pitch course. Excellent experience with our coach Santi, who is a professional and very experienced rock climber and alpinist.
We were taught all the techniques and logics to complete a multi pitch route in the mountains (the second day in Montserrat is amazing!).
We also had many nice small talks about risk management, how to start climbing multi pitch for beginners, etc.. Very nice people and vibe here ;)
(Translated by Google) It was the first time he had done something similar and it won't be the last. it is an experience to repeat
(Original) era la primera vez que hacía algo parecido y no será la última. es una experiencia para repetir
(Translated by Google) Santi's mix of professionalism and good vibes makes the climbing experience complete: educational to learn and fun to enjoy. 100% recommended

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!
This was, without a doubt, an incredible climbing experience - and all because we hired Santi of SouthClimb in Barcelona. He was kind, helpful, considerate, knowledgeable, encouraging, and made this an awesome day of multi-pitch climbing at Montserrat. Highly highly highly recommend him!!!!👍🤗🤩
(Translated by Google) Everything is very professional, from hiring to after the activity. I will repeat without a doubt.
(Original) Muy profesional todo, desde la contratación hasta después de la actividad. Repetiré no hay duda.
We had an amazing climbing week with Santi. He was experienced and organized everything perfectly. Santi is encouraging, patient and truth worthy, I would climb with him if had chance!
(Translated by Google) A few hours of very pleasant climbing in Arbolí with the children. Great success, with a great time. Santi, the mountain guide, takes care of everything: the material, the routes, the level of difficulty adapted to each one, the photos, the security, and also his attention to everyone and everything for the preparation, before meeting to climb . Southclimb offers the knowledge and experience that allow you to learn, overcome limits, gain confidence, enjoy and share unforgettable family moments. A thousand thanks to you Santi Valerga
