Description

Val d’Aran is a beautiful valley located in the heart of the Pyrenees, in the Spanish province of Lleida. It is home of Baqueira-Beret, the biggest and most famous ski resort in Spain. With its many untracked areas and top-quality powder snow, this destination is perfect for freeride lovers.

On this tour, we will explore amazing terrain with an expert local guide. In addition, a Freeride World Tour skier will join us for two days to share with some awesome descents with us!

During four days, we will ski at Baqueira Beret and Val d’Aran reaching both famous spots and some remote areas (a heliskiing day is in the menu). We will work on ascent and descent techniques, so you will surely improve your level! Furthermore, at the end of our adventure, you will receive a professional video with the highlights of the trip!

Keep in mind that this tour is only suitable for advanced skiers with a good fitness level. Of course, I will be there to help and guide you on the way!

What people are saying about Explore-Share

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.
