Description

Located within the Artic Circle, off the coast of Norway, the Lofoten archipelago is ideal for ski touring. Its unique location allows warm gulf-stream currents to create large snowfalls and a mild climate. You’ll spend six days surrounded by rocky mountains and fascinating blue fjords. You’ll never want to leave Lofoten!

We’ll fly into Evenes and spend the first night at a hotel close to the airport. The next day, on our way to Svolvear/Kabelvag, we’ll enjoy a quick ski tour and end the day on the Rorbuer. We’ll spend the following five days ski touring around Kabelvag. You’ll be able to experience astonishing places such as Torksmannen, Rundfilliet, Stethinden, and so many more. We’ll drive together to the Evenes airport for your trip back home.

Our accommodation during these amazing days will be in Rorbuers, in the fishing village of Kabelvag, which will allow us to access outstanding tracks and slopes for ski touring. In the evening, you’ll experience the exotic Norwegian cuisine, with dishes full of fresh fish.

This trip is recommended for people in good physical health to ascend and ski between 700 and 1,200 vertical meters per day.

Lofoten has so much to offer and what better way to do it than with someone who already knows the area. Send me a request to book the trip. I would love to be your guide and show you the beauty of the Norwegian mountains.

IFMGA/UIAGM Guide from Sesto, Italy

For almost 150 years mountain guides from Sesto/Sexten have been taking enthusiastic people on the mountains. Their long-time tradition has seen famous alpinists and legendary first ascents.

We, the new generation of the Alpinschule Sexten – Drei Zinnen, also turned our big passion into our job. The fascination of the mountains urges us all year round onto the local Dolomites and around the globe. With our professional support your time spent on the mountains doubtlessly turns into an unforgettable experience.

I work together with a group of alpine IFMGA guides: Christian, Daniel, Hannes, Joe, Robert, Helmut and Felix. If I'm not available for your request, one of them will guide you!

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.
