Description

For 7 exciting days, I would like to guide you to the summit of the beautiful, and impressive Artesonraju mountain (6,025m).

There are different routes that can be taken to the top of Artesonraju, and on this adventure we will be scaling the mountain’s northeast face from the Santa Cruz valley. This option of the trip is longer than the 5 day possibility, where we would climb on the southeast face from the Paron valley. Hence giving you extra time to enjoy the spectacular scenery.

The summit of the mountain is definitely the ultimate highlight of this trip. There is nothing quite like standing atop a mountain over six thousand meters tall and gazing at an incredible range like the Cordillera Blanca. However, throughout the trip, you will also have plenty of opportunity to visit some amazing places, including the towns of Huaraz, Cashapampa and Llamacorral.

During the climb, we will be stopping and resting in several different spots on the mountain. Those spots include the Base camp (4,250m),the Morrena camp (5,000m) and the High camp (5,600m). Each one of these spots will provide you exceptional views of the nearby mountains. You may also get lucky and see some of the area’s wildlife, including an Andean condor!

This ascent is challenging. There will be several difficult spots throughout the climb. As a result, participants should have some prior mountaineering experience. You should also be in good physical condition as well.

Are you looking for an unforgettable climbing adventure in the mountains of Peru? Then send me a request, meet me at Huaraz, and let’s start climbing the great Artesonraju’s northeast face.

I can also lead you to the summit of the great Alpamayo on this 7 day 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.
