Description

We are happy to invite you to a heliskiing weekend on the sunny side of the Monte Rosa.

During this weekend, we’ll overfly and ski in an amazing area which extends from the Matterhorn to the southeast side of Monte Rosa.

This stunning region has more than 20 landing sites, around 60 ski runs and a unique alpine scenery. In Monte Rosa everyone finds the perfect terrain and lives a different experience every new day.

From December to mid-March you can find here the best powder snow conditions. Ideally, each guide leads a group of no more than 4 guests. That allows us to offer a maximum of flexibility since every minute of your experience is vital to us.

All participants must be safe off-piste skiers in all snow conditions. It’s also mandatory to be fit enough to face pistes up to 6,000 vertical meters each day.

As for the hotel accommodation, we can suggest 3 comfortable and warm hotels: the Dufour, the Nordend or the Gletscher.

The 3-star Dufour Hotel is close to the ski lifts of Gressoney (Punta Jolanda) and offers luxury rooms, suites and a spa area. All the rooms have TV, telephone, bathroom and some of them a private Jacuzzi. The hotel’s restaurant serves excellent Italian cuisine.

The 3-star Nordend Hotel is located in Staffal (a 5-minute walk from the ski lifts). It also has a spa area and modern rooms with TV, telephone and bathroom. The nearby restaurant da Giovanni serves excellent Italian meals.

Finally, the 3-star Gletscher Hotel is near the cable cars as well. It has 12 nice double rooms with private bathroom and TV. There is a spa, with a Turkish bath, a Finnish sauna and a Kneipp bath. The breakfast buffet provides the necessary energy for the skiing days.

You can not miss the opportunity to fly by helicopter and ski in this incredible region of the Alps. Please contact me if you would like to reserve your place for next winter!

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.

Valeriya

You’re simply the best!!! :))) Explore-Share made everything easy and stress-free. Will definitely use again.

Joshua

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.
