Description

Dare to try the ancient technique to walk through winter forests and mountains on this 1-day snowshoeing experience in the Julian Alps!

The Julian Alps are a fantastic mountain range, part of the Southern Alps that stretches through the northeast of Italy and northwest of Slovenia.

This traditional mountaineering region has some amazing landscapes and surrounding for us to discover. In this program I'll pick you up in Tarvisio, Kranjska Gora or Bled and I'll take you deep into the forests and mountains so you'll experience the silence of the coniferous woods and the solitude of the valleys.

We'll use the snowshoes that were used by the ancient population to move around in winter. So, you'll be able to feel like you're living hundreds of years ago, in the mountains, surrounded by the greatness of the landscapes and without any people around.

I can guarantee you that this is will be hard to forget experience!

Sounds like an amazing plan? It is! Send me a request now and we’ll start planning your visit to this amazing spot in northeastern Italy. You’ll spend an unforgettable day!

Mountain Guide

I was still a child when my passion for high altitude began and grew with me. I was born in Trieste, Italy. Still young, I was carried by my parents, passionate trekkers, onto the mountains.

In the following years, I did all the activities one can do on mountains; from rock climbing to classic rock routes, to high altitude, to ice falls, to ski-touring, to free-riding, to spending every period of my free time wearing climbing shoes, ski-boots or crampons; the different equipment depended on the season I was in.

This passion for open spaces drove me and helped me make solid and long experiences in every kind of mountain activity there is. I graduated in Sports Science in order to pave the way to becoming an Alpine Guide.

Passion for outdoor life; independent of which activity you are doing—this is what I promote. Climbing, skiing, mountaineering, these activities are not a gym where we show off to others. They are reason to travel and explore new places that don’t belong in our ordinary, everyday life. They are a way to live as true adventurers. During any mountain trip, I take in the beauty of nature and enjoy relaxing in it.

Perfect day. Marco was a great guide who made us feel at ease and safe. The route was incredible. Couldn’t recommend more highly - 5*****

Renata

Marco is a really fun guide! He kindda knows which crag that is suitable for us after asking me some information in advance. Also very detail in giving information before we reach the location

Colleen

I had an amazing day climbing with Marco’s colleague Max! He selected a route that was exactly the kind of climb I was hoping for (a long-but-easy trad route), and he was extremely easy to communicate with throughout the day. I would definitely climb with Max again. Also I found the Explore-Share platform very convenient for booking and connecting with my guide.

Kurt

Our guide Max was superb. In addition to excellent instruction and patience, he helped us first-time via ferrata explorers feel confident and capable in challenging situations. Max also shared the incredible history of the area, demonstrating incredible local knowledge and inspiring us to explore on our own to find out more. We had an amazing day.
