Description

I invite you to join me for 1 or more days of backcountry skiing and enjoy fantastic runs on the steep alpine terrain of Hakuba and Myoko.

With an annual snow fall of over 11 meters and amazing powder snow, the Valley of Hakuba is very popular among backcountry skiers. Myoko is a fantastic ski area, renowned for some of the best vertical and longest runs Japan has to offer.

According to your wishes and time available, we will be either in Hakuba or in Myoko ski areas. From there, we will set out for incredible freeriding or backcountry skiing tours in the Japan Alps. Amazing tree runs and steep coulouirs await us!

Located in Honshu, Japan’s central Island, the valley of Hakuba offers 10 ski resorts with more than 200 runs. It is worldwide famous for its amazing deep powder. A big plus is that it is possible to use the resorts lifts to access the backcountry.

This is a fantastic opportunity to explore the heart of the beautiful Japanese Alps, known all over the world for its incredible powder.

Find this trip tempting? Then send me a request and book your trip! We will start planning this skiing tour in Japan right now.

You can also check the 6-day ski tour that I also guide in Hakuba, with the possibility of enjoying its great hot springs (Onsen).

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.
