Description

The picturesque Lofoten Islands of Norway are scattered just north of the Arctic Circle, sandwiched between the Vestfjord and the Norwegian Sea.

Majestic mountains and steep Nordic peaks characterise the Lofoten Islands, which are surrounded by deep blue fjords.

The wide variety of terrain offers an endless playground for skiers that can handle intermediate to sustained runs. Steep channels climax in the highest point in the archipelago, Higravstinden, which stands at 1,146 meters.

We’ll be ski touring above the polar circle, where the contrast of the sea, snow and mountains makes for a spectacular adventure.

After long days of skiing we’ll take shelter in Rorbu, a traditional Norwegian style of house that is used by fishermen.

Potential participants are expected to be comfortable skiing on at least intermediate terrain.

Get in touch now to reserve your place on an 8-day ski touring adventure along the Lofoten Islands in Norway.

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.
