+1 Day
Jan - Mar, Dec
If you want to get started in the exciting world of ice climbing, or you are looking to improve your skills, this journey in Sappada ice falls is just for you.
Sappada is a small village in the province of Belluno, in Northern Italy. It stands in the border between Italy and Austria, and is part of the Dolomites.
It’s a beautiful alpine valley of green hills, coniferous forests, waterfalls and lagoons.
Mount Peralba (2694 m), Pic Cjadenis (2490 m) and Mount Lastroni (2450 m), are among the highest peaks in the area.
Sappada is a reference point for ice climbers, as it offers a wide variety of ice falls. In fact, it has three areas with several routes from road-side single pitches, to 5-6 pitch routes high up in the mountains.
I strongly recommend this place for those who want to start ice climbing activity, as it has easy multi-pitch routes until 200 m. Nevertheless, we can design personalized programes for all levels, according to your wishes and expectations.
During this trip, you will use a basic ice climbing equipment, like harness, helmet, crampons and ice axes. In fact, you can rent everything there.
Please contact me if you want more information about this climbing trip in Sapadda. It will be a pleasure for me to share this amazing experience with you!

Mountain Guide
I started my career as an aerospace engineer, my first passion and then became a full-time IFMGA mountain guide, my second passion, since 2013. Working as a mountain guide gratifies me a lot. I enjoy very much transmitting my knowledge about the mountains and its activities to my friends and clients. I’m based in the Dolomites where I have climbed most of the mountain surroundings us here, including “Via attraverso il Pesce” in Marmolada and “Captain sky-hook” in Civetta. I also enjoy a lot guiding in the rest of the Alps, ice climbing, ski touring, freeride skiing, rock climbing and mountaineering. Feel free to contact me if you want to live a great adventure in the Dolomites or anywhere else in the Alps, during the winter or the summer. It will be a great pleasure for me to guide you and allow you to reach your goal.

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.
