Description

Whenever somebody thinks about skiing in the French Alps, they usually conjure images of beautiful snow capped peaks, fancy chalets and amazing slopes. Well, in the case of Megeve, that is exactly what you get. This luxurious ski resort is the cream of the crop when it comes to ski resorts in the Alps. In fact, over the last century, Megeve has always been at the forefront of the best ski resorts in all of Europe.

There are over 400 kilometres of skiable terrain in Megeve. While the skiing itself in Megeve is nothing short of spectacular, the surrounding landscape only further sets it apart from other resorts. You will get to stare in awe from a perfect location at some the Alps‘ most amazing peaks. They include the Aiguille des Glaciers (3,816m), the Grandes Jorasses (4,208m), the Pointe Percee (2,753m), and of course, the incomparable Mont Blanc (4,810m).

During this ski touring day trip, I’ll take you to some of my favorite spots around the resort. I will adapt the itinerary to your skiing and fitness level: we could ski the terrain at the edge of the pistes if you are beginner or in the mountains if you already have some experience. Don’t hesitate to let me know what your wishes are for our day together.

Please note that we will be skinning up to these spots, so you will need touring equipment (touring skis, touring bindings, touring boots, skins and avalanche equipment). You can rent the equipment at Megeve if you need to.

There is nowhere in the Alps quite like Megeve. And for an entire day, I not only want to help you enjoy the slopes, but to enjoy the whole area around the resort as well. All you have to do is send me a request.

I can also guide you for a day of off-piste skiing lessons in Megeve. If you don’t wish to skin up and would rather use the lifts to enjoy some sidecountry skiing, this is the right option for you.

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.
