Born and raised in Bariloche, Argentina, Julián has spent his entire life exploring and guiding in the wildest corners of the Patagonian region. Having embraced the outdoor life at a very early age, he’s learned to be an autonomous adventurer and is dedicated to passing those skills on to others. He enjoyes sharing his homeland with people from all over the globe, teaching new skills and helping others reach otherwise impossible goals. He guides rock climbing experiences in the summer, backcountry skiing in winter and alpine ascents all year round. Today he leads trips in Argentina—especially in Patagonia (Bariloche, El Chalten & Ushuaia)—as well as neighboring Chile, Peru and Bolivia.

Julian is an exceptional mountain guide. His extensive knowledge of the mountains is truly impressive. Julian consistently developed detailed plans throughout our time together based on the ever-changing weather conditions. His remarkable flexibility ensured that I could achieve all my objectives, regardless of any challenges we faced. During our five days together, Julian not only taught me a wealth of essential skills but also prioritised my safety and reassurance. His teaching method blended instruction with enjoyment and created a perfect learning environment. Whether we were navigating tricky terrain, mastering climbing techniques, or simply exploring the stunning alpine scenery, Julian’s guidance was invaluable. His expertise and calm demeanour reassured me, ensuring I never felt unsafe or uncertain. Julian’s dedication to his clients goes beyond mere professionalism. He genuinely cares about helping you reach your goals while making the experience enjoyable and memorable. The combination of his vast knowledge, teaching skills, and personable nature truly sets him apart. I would choose Julian again as my guide for future alpine adventures. Additionally, I am grateful to have gained not just a guide but a lifelong friend. It speaks volumes about Julian’s character and his positive impact on those he guides.
