Te dejamos una selección de vías largas de iniciación en Montserrat para que puedas poner en practica todas las maniobras de seguridad y técnicas de progresión aprendidas en nuestros cursos.
ESCALAR EN MONTSERRAT - LOS GORROS
El macizo de Montserrat es un pequeño paraíso de roca conglomerada a pocos kilómetros de Barcelona. Es un sitio idílico para iniciarse en las vías largas. La zona de Gorros, particularmente, cuenta con una gran cantidad de vías de grado accesible, acceso rápido y fácil y descenso relativamente sencillo.
Los cuatro Gorros característicos de esta zona son La Gorra Marinera, Magdalena Inferior, Magdalena Superior y Gorro Frigi.
Acceso a la región de Gorros - Para acceder a esta zona de la montaña de Montserrat tenemos varias opciones. Sin duda, la más fácil es utilizando el funicular de Sant Joan, el cual nos deja prácticamente a pie de los Gorros. Desde la salida del funicular solo bastará coger el camino de Sant Geroni, el cual nos dejará a pie de los Gorros en 10 o 15 minutos. Una opción mas económica es coger el camino de las escaleras de los pobres, el cual nos dejara a pie de los Gorros en unos 40 minutos.
Vías largas de iniciación - Aquí tienes un listado de cuatro vías largas relativamente fáciles para practicar maniobras y asimilar conceptos. Recuerda que para hacer una vía larga hacen falta conocimientos de maniobras especificas. Si no te sientes preparado para afrontar estas vías sin supervisión, te recomendamos que participes en uno de nuestros cursos de vía larga o nos llames para que te acompañemos en estas vías. Nos ocuparemos de que aprendas todo lo necesario para poder volver a escalar estas vías con autonomía.
Gorra Marinera - Vía Sargantes (IV+ 180m)
Magdalena Inferior - Rataplan (V- 90 m)
Magdalena Superior - Via 98 Octanos (6a 140 m)
Gorro Frigi - Via Carles (V+ 180 m)
Descenso - De todas estas agujas se debe bajar rapelando.
Planificación - Si ya has participado en uno de nuestros cursos, sabes la importancia de planificar las actividades adecuadamente. Esto incluye desde consultar la méteo, escoger la vía adecuada al nivel de tus posibilidades y estado físico, escoger el material adecuado y recopilar información sobre el acceso y el descenso, entre muchas otras variables.
Esperamos que puedas disfrutar de estas vías.

En este artículo te explicamos por qué.

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) A great moment. Santi is always attentive, but with that relaxed energy... the day flows, you learn, the dynamics do not decline and you become happy. What else?
(Original) Un momento buenisimo. Santi siempre atento,pero con esa energia tan relajada...fluye el dia,se aprende,la dinamica no decae y te vuelves contento. Que mas?
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) I did a climbing course with my two children, everything was very well organized and we had a great time. I'm sure we'll do it again.
(Original) Hice un curso de escalada con mis dos hijos , todo muy bien organizado lo pasamos muy bien .Seguro que repetimos .
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!
