Description

On this approximately 5 hour snowshoe trek, I would like to guide you to the beautiful Terre Rouge lakes.

As long as the weather and snow conditions are agreeable, we should have no problem making our way to the Terre Rouge lakes. Snowshoeing through the gorgeous natural surroundings of Isola 2000, we will take a casual pace. Hence giving you every opportunity to observe the breathtaking scenery. Also, don’t be surprised if you catch a glimpse of the area’s abundant wildlife, including chamois.

We will descent approximately 400 metres during the hike. However, the progression is moderate. So don’t worry if you are not a snowshoeing expert. This is not a difficult trip, and is perfect for people who just want to enjoy exploring a beautiful, peaceful hike through a truly naturalistic place. But the pace is a little more active than other trips I guide in the area, so you should be in good physical condition.

Finally, at the conclusion of the route, we will cross the Italian border. There you will get to see the sensational Terre Rouge lakes. You will get plenty of time to admire not only the lakes, but the area as well, for there is a lot of history there, particularly Italian military history. Afterwards, we will make our way back. Thus concluding this wonderful tour.

Snowshoeing is an excellent activity. It’s not too strenuous and allows you to immerse yourself in nature, most of which is slumbering under the calm of winter. So send me a request, come to Isola 2000, and let me take you to the Terre Rouge lakes.

I also lead an even easier 3 hour snowshoeing tour through the Isola 2000 area as well.

Nature is for me a fabulous field of investigation . Colors, scents, sounds are always present and reveal us so many sensations.
My hometown is Nice on the French Riviera and I explore my region from the Mediterranean shores to the highest peaks of the Mercantour National Park. In the summer time on foot, and in the winter with snowshoeing.

I am looking forward to guiding you in my region, sharing the vision of chamois, marmots and ibexes, on the tracks of wolves, and with a golden eagle in the sky.

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.
