Description

Follow me to the 4,060 meters summit of the impressive Gran Paradiso in Italy and ski all the way down on an unforgettable 3-day weekend adventure!

To begin our trip, we’ll meet in Argentiere and review the equipment. The following day, we’ll drive to Valsavarenche, via the Mont Blanc tunnel, and ascend to the Rifugio Chabod (2,710 m). Depending on the time of our arrival, we might do a schooling session on crampons and ice axe usage. On our last day, we’ll climb to the summit of the glacier, enjoy the breathtaking views from above and ski all the way down to the village. This is my proposed itinerary, but it may change depending on weather and safety conditions and participants’ ability.

In order to take part of this trip keep in mind that you need to be an excellent skier with a very good fitness level. Previous mountaineering experience on ice and snow is also necessary.

If you would like to stay longer, we can also extend this trip to last between 4 to 6 days. Additionally, this program is also available as a private tour between the months of March and June, just let me know in your comments when you book the trip.

Mountain Guide

I am in the mountains all year-round, either guiding a trip or exploring on my own. Mountain guiding is not only my profession and passion but also my inner calling. I am a qualified IFMGA mountain and ski guide.

In 2012, I established my mountaineering school "Mountains" with the motto: Quality guiding on snow, rock and ice. You can count on a low client to guide ratio, reliable gear and high quality programs led by our talented team of guides. We are not adrenaline junkies - we put safety first and strive to meet and exceed all of our clients' needs.

We take great pride in having more than 30% returning clients and would be thrilled to welcome you to our "Mountains" family during your next rock, snow or ice adventure!

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.
