Description

This 5-day Frey to Jakob ski touring trip is an amazing winter adventure that will take you through places you haven’t even dream about!

This program will start in Bariloche, an amazing city for winter activities down in the Argentinian Patagonia. It is designed to go skiing in virgin terrain, but also to take you to explore a remote spot where few people go by during winter.

So we’ll start from the Cerro Catedral ski resort. We’ll take the lifts up and ski our way to the Frey Mountain hut. Here you’ll experience a night surrounded by snowed peaks and full of stars that you won’t easily forget. The next day we’ll enjoy some high quality skiing around the hut’s slopes and spend a second night on this amazing place.

Then we’ll start the most adventurous part of the trip. We’ll skin up our skis and climb up to the laguna Shmoll and cross to the Rucaco valley, where we’ll be alone with nature. After crossing this valley we’ll climb the cerro Brecha Negra to get to the San Martin mountain hut at the shore of the laguna Jakob. Here we’ll spend the night and enjoy the next day skiing around it.

Finally on the last day we’ll ski our way down to the the trail head of the Jakob path, where a transfer will take us back to Bariloche.

So don’t think about it any more and send me a request to make this 5-day Frey to Jakob ski touring trip your next winter 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!

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.
