Jan - Mar, Dec
Slovakia offers beautiful natural settings to practice ice climbing. In particular, we will climb in the High Tatras National Park and in the Slovak Paradise.
Ice climbing is a unique activity. Each season a new playground is formed, and you never know how it's going to turn out! Indeed, this ephemeral practice is great for rock climbers that want to try something new.
We can leave for 2 or 3 days. Depending on the amount of participants and their level, I will design an itinerary. In general, I can take up to 4 people with me. But for more technically challenging climbs I guide only up to 2 people. This pleasant winter sport is open to everyone who likes nature and climbing.
And if you have more ice climbing experience, I also offer multi-pitch ice climbing. This trip also takes 2-3 days.
Another winter activity that I love to guide is this Ice Peak High Tatras ascent, check it out!
Do you find this trip tempting? Then please contact me for more information! Let's discover this wonderful frozen vertical world together, in the magical Slovakian landscapes.

For multi-pitch ice climbing, the price per person per day is 240€ f you are alone and 128€ if you are a group of 2.
If you don't have climbing equipment I will lend it to you.

Mountain Guide
I was born in Poprad and I live, work and relax in the High Tatras. I have been climbing in this region for 15 years both in summer and winter.
Since 2001 I am a professional rescuer with a completed Bachelor education in Urgent Medical Care. Furthermore, I work in The Experts Mountain Rescue Service (in High Tatras) as an avalanche specialist.
In 2009, after passing the entrance examination for mountain guiding, I started the roundabout course. In April 2010, I became a mountain guide aspirant in the National Association of Mountain Guides of the Slovak Republic.
In 2011, during the final course in Chamonix - Mont Blanc (France) I successfully completed the course of mountain guide during four days of tests, under the strict supervision of Technical Commission NAHVSR instructors. Since then, I am a mountain guide with the IFMGA / UIAGM international license.
Thanks to this job (and hobby) I am pleased to expand the horizons of my clients and share with them my knowledge and experience as a mountain guide.

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.
