Description

Famous for the views, comfort and wonderful selection of slopes to splitboard on, the Frey hut and the Jacob hut are excellent places to visit. And on this 6 day splitboarding tour, I would like to guide you to these 2 wonderful huts.

Beginning in Bariloche, you will have the option to either spend the day in the vibrant city, or visit the Cerro Catedral ski resort. If you decide to visit the resort, you will get to practice many of the splitboarding skills necessary for the days to come.

After Bariloche, we will make our way to the Frey hut, where we will spend the night, by ascending the Cerro Catedral. On the following day, you will get to spend the whole day enjoying the slopes around the hut before sleeping another night there.

On the fourth day of the trip, we will depart the Frey hut and venture to the Jacob hut. More isolated than the Frey hut, the Jacob hut will offer you a great deal of peace, natural beauty and fantastic slopes to splitboard on. Hence why you will get to spend the entirety of the fifth day and night there as well.

The trip will conclude after we return to Bariloche from the Jacob hut by descending the Cerro Catedral.

This is a great trip for anybody that wants to spend time in a beautiful, natural environment. It is also a great trip for people who want to enjoy some great splitboarding as well. To experience it for yourself, just send me a request.

Would you like to spend 11 days splitboarding on some of Chilean Patagonia’s most famous volcanoes? Then come and join me on this exciting adventure.

Mountain Guide

Mountain Guide - EPGAMT - Argentina
I was born in Patagonia, Argentina and formed at an early age as a climber in the Nahuel Huapi National Park. Currently I completed a large number of rock and ice climbing routes, backcountry skiing and ascents in many mountains around the world such as Mt. Lhotse (8.516 mts.), the 4th highest peak in the world, without using supplemental oxygen (May, 2012).
I'm a certified Mountain Guide from the EPGAMT and a member of the Argentinian Mountain Guides Association (AAGM) and work on Mt. Aconcagua, which I had repeatedly ascended, as well as in other peaks in the Central Andes, Patagonia, Chile, Peru, Bolivia and in The Himalayas in Nepal.
During the winter season, I practice backcountry skiing, mostly on the volcanoes in Patagonia, where I can offer you different adventures, according to your level (beginner, learner or advanced learner).
I feel very privileged to work as a mountain guide, to do the job that I love, and to be able to share it with people that have the same passion.
Join my expeditions and I will provide you a high standard of safety and personal attention!

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.

Cami

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.
