Description

Are you fascinated by active volcanos, remote landscapes and splitboarding? We have the trip for you. A 10-day expedition to the Chigmit Mountains, an incredible spot for snow lovers and adventurers in the deep white wilderness of Alaska.

Located on the northeastern end of the Aleutian range, these peaks are full of unexplored slopes and descents that will make your splitboarding experience even more rewarding. And there are also active volcanos, as we said before, like the superb Mt. Iliamna (3,053 m) a glacier covered-stratovolcano that ‘exhales’ steam. You can also access Mt. Redoubt (3,108 m), the highest peak of the Aleutian range.

The background is not less impressive. You can admire glaciers (and even enjoy some snowboard descends on them), forests, and the most amazing wildlife, while you practice your favorite sport. And at nighttime, relax at our campsite to prepare for another day of pure splitboarding.

Even though the terrain is wide and open, the remote nature of these spots could be challenging. Therefore, you will need an extensive prior experience in splitboarding and a good physical condition to keep up with the program.

Does it sound good? It will look even better! Send us a request and we will make it happen.

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!

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.
