Looking for a real ski touring experience? Come with me on this 2-day ski touring trip on the Lanin Volcano and discover this iconic Mapuche mountain!

At 3,777 meters, the Lanin Volcano is one of the highest summits in Patagonia and is located on the border between Argentina and Chile. During this 2-day adventure, skiers will have the opportunity to discover its slopes while enjoying fantastic views of the Argentine Pampas and the beautiful Chilean forests and its unique lakes.

According to the participant’s wishes, our journey can start in Junín de los Andes, San Martin de los Andes or Bariloche. Early in the morning, we’ll drive to the north entrance of the volcano (1,146 m) and leave our car at the Lanín National Park’s entrance. Once we are all set, we’ll ascend to the BIM hut (2,315 m) where we’ll spend the night and get ready for our summit attack on the following day.

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.

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.
