Description
Join me on this 7-day Berner Oberland ski tour for advanced skiers!
Located in the magestic Swiss alps, the Berner Oberland is one of Switzerland’s most diverse regions. Famous for its spectacular mountains and massive glaciers, this 7-day ski tour in Berner Oberland will be the ultimate ski adventure you can find in Switzerland.
Our meeting point will be in the amazing Swiss ski resort of Grindelwald at 1034 meters. From here, we will take a train up to the Jungfraujoch where you will discover Europe’s highest railway station at 3,463 m above sea level. Definitely one of Europe’s top places to visit!
During the days to come we will be climbing the different peaks along the way, like the Finsteraarhorn at 4273 meters, the highest peak in the Bernese Alps. Or skiing down the amazing Ewigschneefeld glacier, one of the three main arms of the Aletsch Glacier.
At night, we will be able to enjoy the amazing local food that will be served in the different huts. After a long and exhausting day of intense skiing, nothing better than a cozy bed to rest.

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.
