Description

Have you ever daydreamed about ski touring in one of the classic routes of the Alps? This is your chance! I invite you to join me on an epic ski tour adventure to make your dreams come true.

I can design different programs depending on whether you mostly enjoy descents or if you are rather a traverse enthusiast. Of course, your skiing level and the time you have available will also be determinant factors when designing the program. Besides, I will take into account if you prefer to sleep in unguarded refuges or enjoy comfortable stays in hut each night.

What do all these options have in common? In any case, we will go explore new horizons, and take the time to enjoy the mountain.

The classic of classics is the Haute Route from Chamonix to Zermatt. And we can definitely traverse it together! This route starts and ends in the two alpinism capitals. There are different possible versions for this traverse, depending on the group. It takes about 5 to 7 days .

I also love the Vanoise traverse. It is a beautiful loop, quite accessible, in the wild Vanoise massif.

The Silvretta is a perfect massif to try a first ski touring traverse. The routes are ample and the huts are comfortable.

Another option, the Hospice du Grand Saint Bernard, is a beautiful and short option. In 3 days, leaving each day from the same place, we can explore the area. Ideal for first timers.

The Tour de la Meije is a fantastic route that takes from 4 to 6 days. This option is reserved to alpinist skiers.

Finally, I also propose The 7 passes. It will be a wild traverse in the high mountain at the border between France and Switzerland.

Interested in any of these ski tour options? Then don’t hesitate to contact me! Send a request specifying which option you prefer, or propose your own. Let’s make your ski touring dreams come true! And if you don’t feel ready for an adventure like this, you can start by trying one or more days off-piste skiing in Chamonix with me.

What people are saying about Explore-Share

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.
