Chamonix is a classic destination for ski lovers. Whether you are a piste skier looking for a backcountry adventure, or you are in Chamonix exclusively for backcountry skiing, this program is for you!
I can guide you during one or more days in the region of Chamonix. This trip is for all levels. Depending on your experience I will determine the best routes and activities. The options in the area are endless, so you can be sure that I will design a perfect program for you.
Particularly in popular destinations as Chamonix, it is a great option to try backcountry skiing to get away from the crowds and enjoy some silent time in the mountain with perfect powder. And we might take advantage of the good chairlift system to access some locations more comfortably.
There are many options, not only in Chamonix but in the region, including Aravis, Chablais, Aiguilles Rouges and Beaufortain.
I particularly like the routes of the Tour Noir pass or the Argentière passage, the Crochues-Bérard traverse and the Beugeant and Belvedere passes in Aiguilles Rouges. Other favourites include the Passon pass and the Cicle pass. But if you have something else in mind, do not hesitate to propose it!
Tempted to join me for one or more days of backcountry skiing in Chamonix? Then book this trip and let’s start planning! And you can also check out my heliskiing option in Chamonix.

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.
