Calling all hikers to the Appalachian Trail! Join us for a 1-day hike to Charlies Bunion!
Tennessee, located in the southeast corner of the United States, is famous for its natural landscapes, specifically the Appalachian Trail. On the trail, you will find rocky cliffs and steep ravines, all of which contribute to the beauty of the region. And under the supervision of a local guide, we make sure to take our hikers on the less-visited paths for optimal enjoyment.
Over the course of approximately 6 hours we will make our way to Charlies Bunion, a famous mountainside on the Appalachian Trail. From the peaks of the mountainside, views of Mount LeConte, Ocunaluftee watershed and the Sawteeth Ridge will be free for you to enjoy. You will also have the opportunity to learn about the nature and history of the region, such as the origin story of some settlers in the region and the Spruce-Fir Tree epidemic.
This 1-day hike is of a moderate to strenuous level of difficulty, so we ask that hikers consider this when signing up. More still, your guide will prepare a seasonal backcountry lunch for you to enjoy on the trail.
Request to book this trip if you have always wanted to hike along the Appalachian Trail!

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.
