Hut to hut backcountry skiing tour in the Gran Paradiso National Park, looking for wild places and powder snow, with Andrea, local IFMGA mountain guide.
3 Days
Mar - May
The Gran Paradiso National Park in the Aosta Valley is a wonderful area for the ones in search of beautiful natural places, quietness and great spots for ski touring.
I like very much bringing my clients and friends there because:
– It's a unique spot (especially la Vallée de Rhemes) for ski touring amateurs. During spring time, no helicopters are allowed;
– We stay in charming and very welcoming refuges like Rifugio Benevolo. Mathieu and Micol, two mountain fanatics, manage the refuge;
– There are several itineraries that we can adapt according to the ski level of the participants.
It is also the place where I come from. Therefore, I'm always very glad to guide here and let my clients discover this marvellous valley.
A few of the places where we might go are: Granta Parei, Pointe Calabre, Tsanteleina, Galicia, col Bassac Deré…
I propose here a 3-day program, but we can of course adapt the duration based on your availability.
If you want to join me in this adventure, please contact me. I will be happy to explain everything you need to know. Do you prefer exploring the area during the summer? Then have a look at this hiking around the Gran Paradiso trip!
Going up to La Pointe Gran Vaudala and then ski down to Rifugio Benevolo.
Going up to La Galicia and then ski down to Rifugio Benevolo.
Going up to La Pointe Calabre or Granta Parei (depending on the level of skiers) and then back to the cars.

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.
