Description

Come with me on this 8-day ski adventure in Central Switzerland!

If you have already done the classical Haute Route (all the way from Chamonix in France to Zermatt in Switzerland) or are hoping for some new adventures in the most remote corners of the Alps, this is the trip for you!

Located in the heart of Switzerland, our meeting point will be in Andermatt. This charming mountain village is located at 1437 meters above sea level and is where the Swiss federation started. Throughout these 8 magical days we will tour all the way from Andermatt to the beautiful mountain resort of Engelberg.

During the day, we will be skiing up and down the amazing mountains that surround us and, in the evenings, we will enjoy delicious homemade food and rest in cozy beds in the different small huts that we will find along the way.

In this skier's paradise, we will climb different peaks every day, like Mount SpannortGrassen mountain (3198 meters) or Mount Lochberg (3079 meters). It will be my pleasure to guide safely around this area and allow you to discover these fantastic spots.

You will find a more detailed itinerary below!

Keep in mind that all participants need to be experienced skiers (PSIA level 8). Also, having an excellent physical condition is mandatory for all participants.

If you wish to do another ski tour in Switzerland, you can also join me on this 6-day ski tour in the Silvretta Alps!

So if you are ready for this 8-day Central Switzerland ski tour, request to book this trip!

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.
