Description

If you’re a splitboarder or snowboarder looking for good freeride descents in Monte Rosa, you should join me on this one or more days program.

Monte Rosa massif is a very famous area, mainly due to its many off-piste spots that can be easily reached by ski lifts. It is in fact, the only site in Europe that has more than 2000-meter-long vertical runs to enjoy with your snowboard.

What I am proposing today is a custom and flexible program that will depend on multiple factors: technical level of the group, available time in the area and weather/snow conditions.

So, I will plan a personalized off piste snowboarding adventure, just for you and your group. We’ll take the first lift at 8:30 am to Punta Indren (3270 m) and from there I’ll take care of taking you to the best powder runs, that can be found in any of the following places:

Balma: one of the most renown itineraries due to its different lines to descend. In addition its access is easy from Punta Indren;
Salza: another classic route in Monte Rosa that goes through a wide valley with exciting descents of 1750 meters long (even suitable for beginners);
Malfatta: a 2000 meters of descent that requires a 40 m rappel via a steep couloir. Malfatta leads to a valley where powder remains for a long time;
Valle Perduta: 45 min walking with splitboards will take us to the steep couloir. Once there, we will enjoy 1850 meters of runs through a glacier;
Zube Valley: after 30 min splitboarding, 1750 meters of descent waits for us to snowboard down the stunning valley.

If you want to be part of this program take into account that you should have good techniques of snowboarding/splitboarding and a good physical condition.

Monte Rosa awaits! Send your request now and make your reservation! It’ll be my pleasure to guide you there.

Mountain Guide

I am Marco, and I am an UIAGM certified mountain guide since 2003. I started rock climbing when I was 14, and at the age of 20 I climbed the great Californian walls of El Capitan. Then i explored Patagonia, climbing the mythical Fitz Roy. I have also opened new routes in the Moroccan High Atlas and in the Alps.

My passion for the mountains drives me to work throughout the year, looking for new adventures. Depending on the season, I take my clients rock climbing, mountaineering, ice climbing, freeriding, hiking... Either in the Alps, since i'm based in the Monte Rosa area, or in many other countries, in different continents.

The mountain as a playground has no limits!

Man

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!

Maxine

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.
