Enjoy a real sense of freedom skiing away from the crowds.

Description

Monte Rosa is the second highest massif in the Alps and western Europe. Because of its large extension of powder snow terrain, it’s perfect for freeride adventures. Come with me and spend 4 days skiing down some of the best untracked slopes in Europe!

On the border between Switzerland and Italy, Monte Rosa is part of the Pennine Alps. On this freeride skiing tour we will explore three beautiful areas of the region: Breuil-Cervinia, Zermatt-Gornegratt-Sunnega, and Champoluc-Gressoney-Alagna. We will ski down long powder slopes surrounded by impressive valleys, glaciers and ice-covered peaks. Furthermore, a helicopter will help us to get away from the crowds to reach some steep and wide corridors of powder snow! You can find a detailed itinerary below.

So, if you are up for an unforgettable freeride skiing adventure, please contact me. I’ll be glad to be your guide on this 4-day trip in Monte Rosa!

I can also take you to Mont Blanc for another awesome skiing experience, check it out!

Mountain Guide

I am Reccardo Olliveri, class 1975, registered to the Alpine Guide College of Piemonte since 2002 and graduated in environment and territory engineering at the Turin technical college. I live at Turin, but I am resident in the Alps where I practice the mountaineering activity all through the year; I love the void and I play every time I can; on rock, ice, dry tooling and also skiing.

Its with great passion that I continue practicing the mountaineering activity and I dedicate myself to pass on to all those interested to know, the spirit and the ability to dedicate oneself close to the mountain in all its forms.

Man

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!

Maxine

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.
