Description
The Carnic Alps are a wonderful range in Northern Italy. They are filled with lakes, forests and beautiful peaks. And during the months from which this trip takes place, they are also completely blanketed with snow, giving it a gorgeous winter sheen. And on this trip, you will get to snowshoe through it. That is not all however, because you will also get to snowshoe through the Friulian Dolomites as well. Hence making this trip a 2 for 1 adventure that you will never forget.
Before the trip begins, we will discuss where you would like to go. We will also discuss which routes to take based on your skill level. As a result of the vastness of the area found in the Carnic Alps and the Friulian Dolomites, there are well tracked, easier paths for beginners and more wild, less explored routes for experts. But no matter what level you are at, and what route you choose, the large scale scenery can be seen. Which is a great thing because it's absolutely incredible.
Some examples of the different parts of the Carnic Alps and the Friulian Dolomites you can enjoy include Sappada, Sauris, Forni di Sopra, Ravascletto, Erto and Cimolais.
This is a great trip for anybody who wants to explore the beauty of the Carnic Alps in the winter season. The contrast between how they appear in the winter as opposed to the spring and summer is stunning. And I have no doubt you will enjoy every minute of this snowshoeing tour. So if you want to join me on this amazing trip, please send me a request.
I can also lead you on a similar 1 day snowshoe tour through the Dolomites as well.

Mountain Guide
I was still a child when my passion for high altitude began and grew with me. I was born in Trieste, Italy. Still young, I was carried by my parents, passionate trekkers, onto the mountains.
In the following years, I did all the activities one can do on mountains; from rock climbing to classic rock routes, to high altitude, to ice falls, to ski-touring, to free-riding, to spending every period of my free time wearing climbing shoes, ski-boots or crampons; the different equipment depended on the season I was in.
This passion for open spaces drove me and helped me make solid and long experiences in every kind of mountain activity there is. I graduated in Sports Science in order to pave the way to becoming an Alpine Guide.
Passion for outdoor life; independent of which activity you are doing—this is what I promote. Climbing, skiing, mountaineering, these activities are not a gym where we show off to others. They are reason to travel and explore new places that don’t belong in our ordinary, everyday life. They are a way to live as true adventurers. During any mountain trip, I take in the beauty of nature and enjoy relaxing in it.

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.
