VIAS LARGAS DE INICIACIÓN EN MONTSERRAT

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.

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.

(Translated by Google) We have had an incredible weekend. Santi is very attentive, super good vibes and makes you feel safe at all times. It also gives enough freedom for you to have confidence in yourself to move forward. He puts a lot of love into it, you can tell he enjoys his work :) We are left wanting more!

Had an amazing time learning to multi-pitch with Santi and Mariano in Montserrat. They were patient with us and taught us everything we need. We ended the day by climbing El Gorro Frigo (5 pitches).

First of all, I want to thank Santi - our rock climbing guide - for an excellent teaching!!⚡️
He was consistent, attentive to our strengths and weaknesses, inspiring confidence and really professional (technically and psychologically)!
I finally overcome my fear of lead rope climbing which followed me for a long long time… A friend of mine had his first time real rock climbing and now he already knows both types (lead and top) of climbing and belaying!🤯
And it hasn't felt like a boring studying with a tired of all this annoying tourists instructor. Santi was behaving not just as a mentor, but also as a friend of us🤝🏻
Hope to climb together one day again✨🏔️

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!

I had a great day climbing in Montserrat with Santiago. He picked a great route that was fun and challenging without being overwhelming. I improved my multipitch skills and got to see some beautiful scenery and interesting rock. Santiago was very knowledgeable and helpful, and most importantly is a fun person to spend a day with. I'd highly recommend booking a climb if you're in the area!
