      Had an amazing time doing multipitch routes!
      I booked for 2 days and loved every second of it. Juan (the guide) was not only a very skilled and friendly instructor, but also took the time to explain techniques and how you could safely climb. The routes are amazing and the surroundings are beautiful! I can definitely recommend this activity to anyone that is interested in climbing!

      It was a really nice day where I learnt a lot of techniques but also about how to climb safe. Peter has a lot of experience and still has the excitement like he just started!

      Basic Climbing Course (3 Days)
      I took the basic course (3 days) and had a wonderful experience. I was at Suesca rocks with Fredy who is a very experienced climber and a patient and fantastic teacher, who could transmit me the feeling of safety and encouragement in every situation. I learned a lot of things according to my climbing level and appreciated their flexibility. Overall, I had a lot of fun at the beautiful routes of Suesca.

      Stoked at Suesca
      Juan Petersson took me up 3 multipitch routes on Suesca. He led them all and I cleaned. He is a very experienced and capable climber. I had an excellent time and hope to come back soon. The rock was clean and the climbing was really fun with awesome panoramas.

      Awesome first multipitch experience
      My girlfriend and I had an amazing day climbing with Juan (JF) Petersson in Suesca. The rock is beautiful,there is a diversity of climbing style, and we got to try many things new to us, including multipitch climbing and rappelling. JF is an absolute pro and he made this experience as educational as it was safe and fun. (Not to mention, he also rappelled and spotted my phone on which I'm typing this review after I dropped it about 60m up!) Cannot recommend this experience,and JF, enough. Great day!

      Amazing Experience - One of the Most Activities We Recommend Most in Our World Travels
      My wife and I have been traveling for over one year and in that time our two-day rock climbing course with Juan rank as one of our most memorable experiences. Juan is an absolutely incredible climber and he instills a sense of confidence in the experience from the outset. His knowledge base in the sport spans decades and he imparts that knowledge during each step of the activity. On top of it all he is a genuinely nice person and that makes the entire experience that much better. Whether you are looking to begin learning climbing or are a seasoned climber looking to improve your skills - I highly recommend Suesca Outdoors and its owner Juan. We had an incredible (and thrilling) experience. P.S. Thanks Juan for everything! You are truly a class act and we appreciate how memorable you made our rock climbing experience. Cheers!

      Climbing and scrambling with Juan
      I had a very enriching experience with Juan - I'm an experienced climber and he guided me through the PERFECT day. Very talented, trustworthy, and kind. He took time to teach me anything I was interested in, and encouraged me when I felt nervous. We explored the mountains together and I felt safe. Very very very well worth the expense. Thank you Juan!

      BEST EXPERIENCE BY THE HAND OF OTTO
      Climbing with Otto and my girl friend was the most amazing experience. Otto is a pro! in every single sense. Besides, is very careful and transmit confidence, calm and make you feel comfortable supporting you in every single way. I would definitely repeat the experience by the hand of Otto again.

      3 days Suesca Climbing
      A friend and I went climbing for 3 days with Juan Peterson in February 2019. I cannot say enough great things about the trip. Juan is highly organized, punctual and puts in a long day. He is super prepared, mature, and an excellent teacher. My friend and I were novices and Juan taught us so much - really elevated our abilities. He is incredibly safe and a lovely presence to be around. I had a freak out at height the first day and he was incredibly caring, calming, and reassuring. With climbing you really are putting your life in a stranger's hands. I have total trust and belief in Juan. I cannot recommend him highly enough.

      world class climbing guide and trainer, superb climbing
      I reached out to Juan three months to climb in Suesca ago after reading reviews about him on Tripadvisor. I have been climbing and training with him regularly ever since. He is a phenomenal climber/guide/trainer/person. All I can say is you would be very fortunate to climb with him. Muchas gracias.

      Really fun 2 days!
      Juan is an amazing guide and teacher. My husband and I took his 2 day basic climbing course. Juan taught us different climbing techniques and fall arrest systems during sport climbing and multi-pitch ascents. He was always very supportive and took our safety very seriously. We had a great time and learned a lot. We would highly recommend going climbing with Juan if you have a few days to spend in Suesca.

      Where I got my start rock climbing
      About a year ago, I started rock climbing for the first time with Juan Fernando (AKA "Peter") in Suesca. Fast forward a year to now and I'm now leading multipitch trad on my own. I owe everything I know to Peter. Whether you're completely new to rock climbing or you're a seasoned rock climber who just wants someone to show them around Suesca, Peter and his fellow guides at Suesca Outdoor Experience are the only option in my opinion. First and foremost, they are all very safety conscious. As Peter says, "Rule number one: be safe. Second rule: remember rule number one." While Peter is a very accomplished climber and even free solos on his own time, when other people's safety is literally on the line, he is 100% safety-conscious. Not that I've ever needed it, but it's worth knowing that these guides are part of the volunteer high-angle rescue team for Suesca. They have even done training for professional rescue teams in Colombia, such as for rescue units from the Colombian National Police. After having climbed in Suesca continually for about a year, I've also come to realize that Peter, along with Fernando ("Fercho") and Otto, are all very well known and respected among the climbing community in Suesca and beyond. As for the climbing itself, Peter and his colleagues can go as hard or as easy as you'd like. I've recommended Peter to many friends who wanted to try climbing for the first time and their experiences were consistently fun and positive. For those who don't speak Spanish, their English is excellent. If you're an experienced climber, it's still not a bad idea to hire a guide for Suesca just to show you around. There are literally hundreds of routes in Suesca and the guidebook sold in the climbing stores isn't exactly up-to-date or easy to follow. Spend less time wandering around and more time climbing! Overall, Peter and his fellow guides are the only Suesca guides used by my gringo self or any of my gringo friends. It's always a blast to climb with this crew. While of course there are other reputable guides in Suesca, I've also seen other guides do some sketchy stuff. Suesca Outdoor Experience is the safest, most professional operation in Suesca that I know of and you cannot go wrong with using them for whatever climbing goal you have.

      Great climbing guide!
      I was looking for an activity to fill a day and I typically climb at home but didn't bring gear. I contacted Juan Fernando on his website and he immediately responded, answering all my questions about price etc. He went the extra mile in helping me figure out how to get to Suesca from Bogota. When I arrived, he was unfortunately busy but had arranged for Freddy to take me out. The gear fit perfectly and Freddy was right on time. Freddy did a great job in gauging my skill level and arranging accordingly. We ended the day with a challenging multi-pitch and I left exhausted and satisfied. Highly recommended!

      I'm a beginner level climber and I felt safe at all times with Juan Fernando who is a really nice person. The Suesca area is beautiful and I really enjoyed the half day of climbing.

    My wife and I wanted to spice up our trip to Bogota, so we booked a half-day climb with Suesca Outdoor Experience.

    Our guide, Juan, couldn't have been any more perfect for the job. He is a very experienced climber who has spent a majority of his 40 years of climbing right there in Suesca. He took our safety very seriously and was happy to show us some best practices for rigging anchors.

    While my wife and I aren't experienced in multi-pitch trad, he was happy to show us the ropes and carefully teach how to stay safe and some tricks along the way. The route he chose was an excellent 3 pitch trad that was about the perfect level of difficulty for our experience level. Later on, he found some top-rope routes that suited me perfectly as well.

    All in all, an excellent excursion that we'd love to do again.

    One of my favourite experiences during my entire Colombia trip. The climbing was VERY affordable, our guide was not only a fun guy but also a very experienced climber and mountaineer (40 year experience).

    He chose a 5.80 multipitch for us, which was perfect for our low skill level: It had an exciting traverse and overhang and the 90m height was definitely a thrill. Always felt extremely save and had a fantastic time.

    We had an excellent day climbing with Juan. He prioritized safety and customized the climbing experience to our ability and desire! Juan quickly set up anchor systems and hauled all the gear up. He is a very strong climber with a genuine passion for climbing.

    My partner and I went climbing twice with Suesca Outdoor Experience and we absolutely LOVED it. Our guide was so friendly, so professional, and really pushed us to go further than we expected. The experience was truly seamless. If you’re in Suesca and want to go climbing, definitely book with them.
