Description

I will guide you on this entertaining and beautiful 1+ day backcountry skiing tour, where we will ski off-piste in some of the most stunning, tranquil and idyllic landscape and scenery in Australia, and experience the epic ski conditions that this area is known for, all in the marvelous region of Falls Creek, Victoria.

Falls Creek is located 350km from the Victorian state capital city of Melbourne, and has a reputation throughout Australia as being one of the best places to ski in the country. Its cool, alpine climate makes it ideal for backcountry skiing, and the views from the top of the snow-capped peak down to the valleys below rival that of anywhere in Australia.

Our day will take us to some of the best and most secluded spots around the area such as Mt. McKay, Pretty Valley, Mt. Nelse and Edmonson’s Hut, where the snow is pristine and fresh and the remoteness allows us to properly focus on our skiing in a leisurely environment,

The sweeping panoramic views down to the uniquely Australian landscape and terrain are a sight to behold, and there is a chance we can encounter such fascinating animals as wallabies, wombats and echidnas.

We then finish the day having gained a new appreciation for backcountry skiing and the alluring countryside of Victoria.

Backcountry skiing in Falls Creek is truly beautiful – book now to experience this beauty.

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.
