Description

The High Tatras are one of the best places in the world to enjoy winter activities. Seeing these magnificent peaks in Slovakia is an unparalleled experience. But, to make it even more special, I will also take you to the iconic Popradske Lake (1494 m) on this snowboarding trip.

We can explore this magical place in one or several days. I will also take into consideration your skill level. As there are some technical routes that require the use of crampons and ice axe.

So if you are an expert snowboarder looking for new challenges, I know exactly the places I will take you to. But, if you want to get more confidence as a beginner, I will show you some spots so you can practice at a comfortable pace.

Once thing is sure, you’ll get to enjoy some of the best snow powder! Here you can enjoy snowboarding in altitudes of over 1,500 meters, and way beyond the forest treeline.  

One of the highlights of our trip is the lake of glacial origin Popradske. We can also visit the biggest and deepest lake in Slovakia: Veľké Hincovo pleso. And we can later head to the mountain hut  Kôprovský štít. This refuge has an incomparable 360º view of the lake, and a route straight to it.

Another amazing option to explore is the highest peak in the High Tatras shared by Slovakia and Poland: Rysy. Upon ascent, we can snowboard down about 2,000 meters. And if you wish to stay more than one day, we can spend some nights at the charming Chata pod Rysmi, a mountain hut right at the foot of Rysy.

So send me a request, and let’s explore this wonderful place in Slovakia. But, if what you want another type of adventure, check out this guided climbing day in Needle of Osterva, near Popradske lake.

Mountain Guide

I’m an IFMGA mountain guide born in west Slovakia, in 1973. Nowadays I live in Poprad, a city 10 km away from the High Tatras, the mountains where I’ve been working for 25 years.

I came to High Tatras when I was student, in the summer of 1991. I started to work as a mountain carrier-sherpa in the chalet Rysy. I was also a professional member of the mountain rescue service.

In 2011, I finished my mountain education in Chamonix and became an international mountain guide. I also worked as a cave rescuer in Slovakia.

During winter, I enjoy ski-mountaineering, freeride, ice climbing and ascending different peaks. On the summer season, I practice mountain climbing, hiking, mountain bike, rock climbing, guiding and a lot of other sports.

Besides traveling with clients, I sometimes go to the mountain alone or with my friends and son.

I offer courses for avalanche education, ski-mountaineering, rock and ice climbing. I also organize special team-building activities for clients and I’m used to working with young people and children.

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.
