Embrace the thrill of conquering Torres del Paine! Ascend up its southwest face, a gentler path that eases you into the grandeur of the Patagonian wilderness.
As you ascend, the Towers of Paine massif will dominate your horizon, their jagged peaks piercing the sky like ancient sentinels. Grey Lake, a shimmering expanse of sapphire, will stretch out beneath you, mirroring the ethereal beauty of the surrounding snow-capped mountains.
But there's more to this ascent than breathtaking views â nature's symphony surrounds you, with the calls of guanacos echoing across the valley, and the occasional flash of a fox adding a touch of wildlife magic to your adventure.
Then, indulge in the unspoiled splendor of Torres del Paine National Park as you journey through the captivating landscapes of the French Valley, meander alongside the tranquil Grey Lake, and conclude your adventure at the breathtaking Grey Glacier.
Following that, the iconic silhouette of Alete de Tiburon awaits, inviting you to conquer its summit. Embrace the challenge and exhilaration of the climb, and culminate your Patagonian adventure with an unforgettable experience.

We had a fantastic trip with Carlos as our guide. We were able to summit Mont Blanc with Carlosâ guidance and couldnât have asked for more. There were some adverse weather conditions on the final day of our trip and so Carlos changed the refuge bookings to allow us to descend safely albeit with a long summit day. Explore-Share were great throughout with communications and Nico in particular was very helpful. Would definitely recommend but make sure to come prepared as it is a very tough climb!

On 2 July, Carlos and I climbed Mont Blanc. We had a friendly atmosphere throughout the tour. Thanks to Carlos's professionalism and knowledge of the area, i felt completely safe all the time. Thanks Carlos :-)
