In a few words

The Catalan cream of the crop for climbing : That's how we could modestly describe Siurana. We'll take you there for a few days to discover its superb cliffs . The ochre-yellow limestone offers a beautiful array of climbing styles (walls, overhangs, slabs, crimps, cracks, etc.), making it an ideal and world-renowned destination. Almost all the greats of climbing have passed through here. The density of climbing areas in Catalonia means you can discover several sites during a single trip. You could try your hand at Margalef, for example, a conglomerate riddled with holes offering climbing that is as good as it is challenging.

The highlights

  • Wine tapas evenings in Cornudella de Montsant
  • The stunning landscapes of the Sierra de Montsant
  • Excellent rock quality for climbing

This is Marc, a Spanish climbing guide, a graduate of ECAM (Catalan school of high mountain guides).

Passionate about climbing and a lover of nature, he started climbing in 1997, and has explored the most iconic sites in the world: USA, France, Italy, Switzerland, Jordan, Morocco, … After 7 years in Civil Engineering, he quickly wanted to dedicate his professional life to climbing and thus share his passion with other climbers on a daily basis.

Here are his words:

"I really enjoy the freedom that climbing offers, both in the sensations provided by the climb itself, and in the wide variety of options it can offer. The other aspect that I like is the bonds that are created between climbing partners."

"Siurana is a magnificent area for this sport. It offers the possibility of climbing almost all year round with a good number of routes of all levels. The quality of the rock is exceptional and offers varied climbing styles with all types of holds, sometimes requiring spectacular moves. Its proximity to other climbing areas makes it one of the most beautiful climbing destinations in the world."

You will be accompanied by our Spanish (English-speaking) guide, who knows the region perfectly and has extensive experience as a climbing guide. He is a graduate of ECAM (Catalan School of High Mountain Guides).

Climbing course in Spain, very professional and friendly climbing guide. The climbing sites are excellent. Small group. One major drawback: the chosen date, as rain is very frequent at this time of year (it's well known) and we were no exception. So, climbing in the rain isn't easy... The dates need to be reconsidered.
