Rock Climbing Holiday
Enjoy a complete Rock Climbing Holiday in sunny Portugal.
Let’s enjoy the great outdoors during a rock climbing holiday filled with unique moments in good company. For us, climbing is more than a sport, it’s a philosophy and a life-style. Our home, the Algarve, is blessed with a variety of gorgeous climbing environments. From table top mountains in the midst of rolling hills, to sheer limestone walls by the sea. One thing is for sure, here one finds a climbing paradise.
All of this while staying in a charming villa with a pool and its own chef.
All meals are consisting of nutritious menus, including vegan and vegetarian diets, to make sure no one is left out. Besides, a restorative 90 minute yoga lesson tailored to every climbers needs is covered too. Our staff is very attentive and will go the extra mile to take your experience to the next level. There are many possible extras, like a massage or a cultural wine tasting tour on your rest day.
All levels are welcome!
Our certificated and experienced instructors will guide and coach you to improve your climbing techniques. Groups will be kept small, and we’ll choose our everyday destination based on your abilities to ensure safety and enjoyment. Regardless of your experience, our team will make sure that you’ll be a more skillful and confident climber by the end of the week! We have selected the best sites for this rock climbing holiday. Our amazing locations and their untapped natural potential are waiting for you! And these may allow to tap the one within you!

The program bellow is made for climbers of all levels, but we’ll have an extra instructor available to take advanced lead climbers to go climb harder routes.
Arrival to our Vila located close to Lagos, where you’ll check in your room and enjoy the facilities. We’ll pick you up from the bus station or train station if you’d like, or arrange an airport pick-up (contact us for the rates). We’ll then gather the team, share a home cooked dinner and discuss the plan for the next few days.
You’ll start the day with breakfast. We’ll then head to our introductory site of Bensafrim to spend a half-day climbing and getting acquainted with the local rock. We’ll head back to the Villa at lunch time, so you can enjoy some free-time before a special evening: Pizza night! We’ll have some team building pizza making action under the supervision of our chef 🙂
We are on for a full-day at Rocha da Pena, Algarve’s biggest and most established climbing paradise with routes for all levels! We’ll stop for a pic-nic lunch and keep climbing away. This will be a full day of improving your climbing techniques topped with a usually gorgeous sunset. We will enjoy a chilled evening partaking of refreshments and snacks.
Here comes your well deserved resting day to explore the charming town of Lagos or simply do nothing! You can book an extra cultural trip with us or just get some tan on one of the most beautiful beaches in the world. To stay healthy and happy, we have a restorative yoga class in the end of the day at the Villa prepared for you.
After the nutritious and delicious breakfast, we’ll head to our secret location by the ocean for a full day of climbing feeling the salty breeze! This will involve a hike, a crazy access and long routes like no others in the region. If you are able to move after this adventure, we’ll get you a bottle of wine from Pedro’s father.
This is the day we head to Sagres, in order to abseil and climb over its majestic 30 meter long sea-cliffs unlike anything you’ve seen in your life. We’ll then head back to Lagos for late lunch and some exploration of its highlights.
This is the night of the celebration of your feats and shared stories over dinner.
If the energy levels permit, we will go down-town for a stroll 🙂
Wake up slowly when you wish and enjoy the last breakfast. Let us know in advance how we can help you with transportation. Let us know if you need a ride, information, free hugs or more fun!
