Description

There is an abundance of spectacular volcanoes in beautiful southern Chile, and on this 12 day ski touring adventure, I would like to take you to the summits of a number of them.

On this amazing trip, you will get to climb to the top of and ski down no less than 6 incredible volcanoes!

Those volcanoes are as follows.

Casablanca volcano
Mocho volcano
Villarica volcano
Llaima volcano
Osorno volcano
Lonquimay Volcano

You can be assured that each volcano provides an experience as unique as the volcano itself. Furthermore, you will be spending anywhere from 5 to 10 hours on each peak. Hence giving you plenty of time to appreciate the beauty on the way up and the thrill of the ride on the descend back down.

Along with visiting the volcanoes, you will also get to visit and spend a day and night in a number of beautiful towns in the southern region of Chile. Those towns include Temuco, Pucón and Puerto Varas. Each town will grant you access to the area’s lovely people, culture and cuisine. Moreover, you will also get to relax your tired muscles in a number of wonderful hot springs, including Puyehue.

While the focus of this trip is climbing up and skiing down volcanoes, there is so much more to it. On this trip you will get to admire and appreciate the gorgeous region that is southern Chile. So send me a request, and let the adventure begin.

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.

Cami

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.
