Description

Resting among the rugged mountains in southwestern Switzerland is the alpine village of Verbier. The world-class ski resort features front row seats to iconic Alpine peaks, such as the Matterhorn and Mont Blanc.

It is among this breathtaking backdrop that we will explore on snowshoes, an excellent alternative to skiing for discovering the snowy mountains.

I have a long record of leading groups on exciting adventures among the snow-filled mountains of Verbier. I’ll take you to my favorite spots where you can feel assured that you’ll know the very best of the region.

Verbier is part of the 4 Vallees region, along with the resorts of Bruson, Nendaz, Thyon, La Tzoumaz and Veysonnaz. That’s right, there are actually 6 resorts of the 4 Vallees! This makes it the largest skiable area in Switzerland.

If the snow conditions are good then we can start the day from the bottom of the mountain, working our way up the slopes and into remote areas. In different conditions we can take the chair lift to enter the mountains.

Witness the dramatic peaks, trek through quiet forests, and experience the serene surrounds of the great outdoors.

Get in touch now to reserve your place on a 1-day snowshoeing trip in Verbier. I’ll maximize the thrills and get you up close and personal with the Swiss Alps.

What people are saying about Explore-Share

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.
