Description

Join me on this 1-day program and discover a fantastic natural area as we hike the Julier Pass in the Central Eastern Alps, in Switzerland.

In the commune of Sankt Moritz, in the Canton of Grisons, the Julier Pass is a high mountain pass that belongs to the Abula Range, in the Alps. Apart from its beautiful landscapes, this is a very interesting historical area. Here, we’ll find remains of Roman cart tracks and constructions as well as million year old marine fossils.

The starting point of our hike will be La Veduta guest house, at an altitude of 2,233 meters. The trail will lead us through Val d’Agnel, near Piz d’Agnel, and we’ll contemplate the impressive Corn Alv. Afterwards, we’ll continue through an amazing desert landscape and find a lake in the middle of the mountains, the Fuorcla digl Leget, at an altitude of 2,711 meters. Finally, we’ll reach Himmelstor and descend through Val Natons and Alp Natons.

Please, take into account that it’s mandatory to have a very good level of fitness to take part of this trip. The complete duration of the program will be 6 hours with a distance of 11 kilometers. We’ll face an elevation gain of 500 meters at the ascent and 950 meters at the descent. Also, consider that the starting and ending points are not the same.

So, do you think this program in the stunning Swiss Alps would suit you? Then don’t hesitate to send the request and book your place. I’m sure you’ll love hiking across this beautiful natural area.

If you’re looking for more hiking programs in Switzerland, I also lead this 1-day hike in Lunghin Pass, a triple basin near Piz Lunghin. Check it out!

Thomas

Mountain Leader

After one year of training by the BAW, the time has come: since April 2016 I have been a certified hiking and snowshoe tour leader.

For some years now I have been travelling in the mountains in summer and winter with great pleasure. I would love to share one or two mountain experiences with you. So if you have time and desire for fresh air, exercise and impressive nature experiences, I am happy:
- to plan and guide a hike "dreamed" by you from easy to sporty
- to plan and carry out a hike according to your wishes.

In winter I carry out snowshoe hikes - again adapted to your individual wishes and possibilities.

With the best mountain and hiking greetings.

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.
