Description

Join this ski touring adventure through the Argentinian Patagonia. Explore Bariloche and its surroundings. And reach the internationally famous Frey Refuge.

Our adventure will begin in the Cerro Catedral ski resort. There we’ll enjoy mesmerizing vistas from the 2 lifts we’ll take to reach the top. Then, we’ll ski tour towards the Frey Refuge.

Bariloche is famous for its top notch powder snow, and its first class ski resorts. However, during our journey, we’ll venture into more secluded areas, so we can enjoy more wild and thrilling descents. Also we’ll enjoy truly breathtaking drops. But the steep couloirs I’ll take you to, will certainly have you holding your breath and injecting you with a fresh dosage of adrenaline.

Some of the highlights of our ski tour adventure are:

Frey Valley
Van Titter Valley
Campanille Valley
Laguna Schmoll

Moreover, the views we’ll get all around, majestic mountains, granite towers, enchanting forests, and charming lakes, will make this an unforgettable experience. Finally, at the end of each day, we will reach the famous Frey Refuge. Here, we’ll get to recover our energies in a cozy and warm environment, with all the amenities we’ll require. And it offers exquisite meals so you can try the local cuisine, with the breakfasts and dinners included in the price of the trip.

Also, I will take into careful consideration your previous experience and requests. If you are an expert, I will show you the spots where you can challenge yourself. But if you wish to gain confidence, we’ll try in quieter areas so you can practice at your own pace.

So if you want to venture into this stunning place, please send me a request. I promise you will have an unforgettable trip in Bariloche.

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.
