Description

I invite you to climb the incredible frozen waterfalls of Sogn og Fjordane, a paradise of blue fjords and stunning peaks in west Norway.

Sogn og Fjordane is surrounded by the highest mountains in the country. Besides, it has The Jostedalsbreen Glacier, which is the largest ice cap in continental Europe. And above all this, it’s also famous for being ‘the land of waterfalls’.

This area draws many nature lovers during summer, that come to admire some of the greatest waterfalls in the country. But when the winter season arrives and water freezes, it’s the time for ice climbers!

Most of the frozen icefalls are close to the fjords or in the valleys. There are short or long lines, that you can choose according to your skills in the ice.

I organize ice climbing trips for all levels, from beginners to more experienced climbers. In fact, I also offer ice climbing courses, if you want to learn the basics. In all cases, it’s essential to have a good physical condition.

We can go there for one or several days, depending on your time and wishes. Each day will have a length between 5 to 10 hours.

Besides, you can include additional activities to your trip, like boat trips, yoga practice, massage sessions and cross-country trips.

Please, contact me if you want to join me for this exciting adventure in Sogn og Fjordane. I will help you organize the best trip for you, according to your wishes and ice climbing experience.

Mountain Guide

I am a fully certified IFMGA guide since 2012. I have, however, mastered my climbing and skiing skills for many years before taking up guiding. I have participated in numerous climbing expeditions not only to the wild mountains of Caucasus (which I have gotten to know pretty well), but also to Nepal, Alps and have extensively climbed in many Norwegian areas. In recent years I have been resident in Norway, and I co-operate with my friends at Lyngen Outdoor Center as their chief mountain guide.

What people are saying about Explore-Share

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.
