Saorge (510m) es un pintoresco pueblo medieval elevado dentro del Parque Nacional Mercantour (685km²), en la región de la Costa Azul (conocida como Côte d'Azur). Está construido en forma de anfiteatro en el costado boscoso y escarpado de una montaña rugosa, con vista al Valle de Roya, en la frontera con Italia.
La Costa Azul se extiende por casi 25 kilómetros a lo largo del Mar Mediterráneo, entre las ciudades de Marsella y Martigues, dentro de la región de Provenza-Alpes-Costa Azul. Entre las atracciones de la región, hay numerosos pueblos en la cima de montañas, conocidos como pueblos elevados. Estos fueron construidos como fortalezas durante la Edad Media.
Dado su gran tamaño, ubicación e historia, Saorge es uno de los pueblos elevados más interesantes de la Costa Azul. Ubicado a una hora de Monte Carlo, la mayor parte del pueblo se desarrolló entre los siglos XV y XVII debido a su ubicación en la antigua ruta comercial de la sal que pasaba por allí. Mientras que tenía una población de más de 3,000 en 1860, hoy en día Saorge es hogar de poco más de 400 personas.
Durante nuestro recorrido, tomaremos la ruta de Peiremont y caminaremos por laderas soleadas a través de los muchos vestigios de épocas feudales presentes en el pueblo: antiguos puentes de piedra, pozos, fuentes, monumentos y edificios religiosos como iglesias de estilo romano y barroco, capillas y monasterios. El sendero se abre paso a través de estrechas y empinadas pasadizos y espectaculares terrazas cubiertas con hermosas orquídeas silvestres, uno de los iconos de Saorge, principalmente durante la primavera (mayormente en mayo). Una caminata final nos llevará a través de un bosque de pinos y alerces, y luego a un alto sendero con vistas increíbles del Valle de Roya, rodeado de bosques verdes y rugosas montañas de caliza blanca.
Este viaje está abierto para todos. El sendero circular no tiene dificultad técnica. Nos llevará alrededor de 3.5 horas e incluye un desnivel de 360 metros (100 ft.).

I am a hiking guide (International Mountain Leader) who has been working all over France (including Provence and the Alps), Italy and Portugal since 2001. I speak fluent English due to my frequent trips to Taos Ski Valley (in New Mexico, USA where my family runs a great hotel and ski school), and my hiking trips in the American Southwest.
I live mainly in Nice (French Riviera), but I also move all over the Alps working in different alpine valleys. I often visit Martinique (French Caribbean island), where I enjoy rainforest and tropical hikes.
When I´m not guiding, I also work as a photographer, and like to climb, ski, play tennis, or kitesurf in my spare time. Additionally, I really enjoy botany and history.
I can guide you for a half day or for as many days as you like. I´ll take you to discover my favourite French Riviera alpine region, and the wild and large Mercantour National Park (counting 8 different valleys) near Nice, Monte Carlo and Cannes.
In my region we can enjoy the Mediterranean landscape at sea level. As we move into higher altitudes, we will discover alpine lakes, larch or pine forests, orchids and alpine flowers, open meadows, spectacular medieval perched villages and old baroque chapels and churches, with great historic value.
We can also discover the hiking hotspots in Provence such as Calanques National Park, Verdon gorges, Sainte Victoire and the Var region, with Saint Tropez a particular highlight.
I also love to hike in Italy in the very famous world heritage Cinque Terre (the amazing national park of the "Five Lands"), or in Liguria near San Remo.
And finally, I always enjoy taking my guests to the northern Alps: to Chamonix and Mont Blanc´s amazingly large panoramas or to the great Vanoise National Park, the largest in the heart of French Alps.

Climbing with guide Guillaume was absolutely a highlight of my 2-week Europe vacation. Originally, we were planning on climbing in the Calanques, but the park was closed due to wind and fire danger. Guillaume chose another amazing location (Pic de Bretagne) based on my climbing abilities and preferences and kindly offered train station pick-up and hotel drop off, which I appreciated very much. The multi-pitch route we did was not only fun but also the right amount of challenge, which I thoroughly enjoyed. The communication from the team (Gauthier) was prompt and clear—highly recommend!

Luis Silva was a great climbing guide and belayer! He taught me how to do moves that were difficult and encouraged me to try routes that were challenging for me! Because of his encouragement, I managed to complete these routes! I really enjoyed the climbs and completed 8 routes in the Sesimbra/Azoia area. The weather was perfect, no direct sun and cool enough to enjoy the climbs. Explore-Share made booking an outdoor climbing experience in Lisbon extremely easy. Luis, our guide, was fantastic, and the platform’s organization was flawless.

We had Léo as a guide for our day climb in Fonty. We were blessed with a knowledgeable, warm, and instructive guide. Communication with Léo and Ivan was smooth and swift. Explore-Share was excellent in arranging everything for our day climb. The communication was quick, and the platform was easy to use, making our adventure stress-free.

Patrick was a great guide. He took us on an intermediate Via Ferrata at Passo Sella. Renato was quick to respond with any outreach on the Explore-Share platform. The booking process was straightforward, and once Patrick was confirmed, all went well. It was a wonderful experience, and I’d highly recommend the platform.
