Description

The Kitzbuhel Alps are a gorgeous collection of peaks. And just like any other large mountain range, they offer many opportunities for great views and exciting fun. From ski touring and off-piste skiing to rock climbing and mountaineering, there are endless activities you can enjoy. However, you always have to remember that all of those activities are offered inside ranges of enormous mountains. As a result, things like avalanches can and do happen, and it is always best to be prepared. Hence the importance of this avalanche safety course.

The course will take place within the Kitzbuhel Alps. This will enable you to get a live feel of what you would be doing and facing. I believe this is far more effective than sitting in a boring classroom.

We will cover several things during the day long course. Some of which include how to work with a transmitter, and general emergency preparation in the case of an avalanche.

After the course has concluded, I will then guide you for some enjoyable free ride skiing on the fresh powder of the Kitzbuhel slopes.

For people who want to enjoy the winter activities in the mountains, and what's not to enjoy? It is also important to be prepared if unfortunate events occur, and that's why I wanted to offer the avalanche safety course. I'm also glad to provide plenty of fun freeride skiing at the back end of the day as well.

So if you want to admire the Kitzbuhel Alps, while also learning how to be safer within them and having some time to enjoy skiing within them as well, just send me a request.

I also want to offer you the chance to join me on a freeride skiing trip for beginners. This trip also takes place in the wonderful Kitzbuhel Alps.

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.
