Description

When it comes to skiing and exploring snow-capped mountain ranges, the beauty and vastness is unforgettable. However, with that beauty comes the responsibility of knowing how to deal with the potential risks found in such areas. As a result, I am happy to offer this 3-day avalanche safety course. Furthermore, I am happy to offer this course in the lovely Gjendesheim Cabin in Jotunheimen, Norway.

Since this course takes place in the snow and mountains, as opposed to just a classroom, you will get to put what you learn into practice. Thus, maximizing the information provided to you.

Throughout the course, while you are in small groups, you will be taught about the necessary equipment, various techniques and important safety skills required for safe and successful exploration of the winter mountains. Moreover, during the course, you will get to enjoy the amazing views of Jotunheimen, while also enjoying the comfortable amenities of the Gjendesheim Cabin.

No prior experience is necessary to enjoy this course. Anybody who wants to learn about avalanche safety can participate. However, you should be in good physical condition.

Perfect for anybody who wants to safely enjoy skiing and mountaineering expeditions in the mountains, this course is an asset that I have no doubt you’ll utilize in future adventures. To join me, please send a request. I look forward to guiding you.

Hiking Guide

With Gjende and Jotunheimen right here in my backyard, it's hard not to spend every waking hour outdoors.

Ever since I was a child, I have been drawn to the natural world. Years later, I still find myself standing in awe of the mountains of my native Norway. Regardless of the season, I work and play outside in the beautiful landscapes that surround me.

While I enjoy many outdoor sports and activities, I must say the mountain biking terrain here in Vågå is hard to beat.

I look forward to exploring my backyard with you on your next adventure!

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.
