Freeride skiing definitely lives up to its name because there is certainly something freeing about skiing beyond the boundaries of a resort. There is also something exhilarating about being able to ski down mountains or glaciers, or skiing through wide open spaces or through forests. The variety you get to experience is what makes it special. And in Chamonix, variety is definitely one of the famous ski area’s greatest assets.
Another interesting part of skiing around Chamonix, and the Mont Blanc massif, is the international aspect of it. Because the resort area is located near the borders of France, Italy and Switzerland, you will have the chance to not only ski in different areas, but in entirely different countries as well!
Also, while still keeping in line with the variety, the slopes around Chamonix are as plentiful as the exciting locations from which you can enjoy them. The altitude range for the descents is from 1000 metres to 3800 metres. Thus making the area accessible to people of all freeride skiing levels.
Here are just a few of the great places I can take you on this exciting freeride skiing trip:
Vallorcine
Courmayeur
St. Gervais
Verbier
Megeve
Envers du Plan
Brevent (which is my personal favourite)
So if you want to have some fun in the Alps, skiing around Chamonix, while admiring amazing peaks from the Aiguille du Midi (3,842m), which you can ski down by the way, to the incredible Mont Blanc peak (4,808m), send me a request. I would be happy to guide you!
I can also guide you on a splitboarding tour near Chamonix as well, on this great trip.

Mountain Guide
I have been a mountain guide since 1996, climbing instructor, mountain bike instructor and snowboard instructor 1° SSBS.
I live in Chamonix and I spend most of my time there in the summer and winter. The rest of the time, I am traveling …
In summer, I spend my time on granite walls that I particularly like. In winter, I do a lot of off-piste skiing, ski touring, and snowboarding/splitboarding… off-piste of course! I try to improve in splitboard and freeride snowboarding in the Mont Blanc massif.
I have had the chance to take some beautiful trips such as to Nepal, United States, Algeria, Morocco, Spitsbergen, Indonesia, Santo Domingo, Majorca, India, Thailand, Tajikistan, Iran, Greenland, Albania and Kosovo. I try to travel to a different place every year.
Please contact me if you are near Chamonix and want to see what happens up there. It will be a pleasure for me to be your guide in this 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.
