About the guide

Bernhard

Mountain Guide

I was born and grew up in Bramberg. When I was a child, I always admired the great view of the Wennser Glacier from my room. My parents put me on skies at the age of 2. Since then I never stopped skiing.

During some years, I was committed to the skiing activity in winter. But later, I discovered my passion for freeriding and hiking.

Since my adolescence, I am fascinated about rock climbing. I like doing this activity at home, which is really beautiful but I also like to discover other climbing spots abroad like in the United States, France, Spain, Australia, New Zealand, England…

Since 2012, when I got my mountain guide and ski instructor certificate, I have been working as a full time guide. I guide most of the time in my region in Hohen Tauern as well as in the Kitzbühel Alps but I also sometimes travel to other destinations in the world like France, Switzerland, Italy and China.

It will be a great pleasure for me to let you discover my region and spend an amazing time together in the backcountry of Hohen Tauern. Feel free to contact me to discuss about your desires and the options I can offer.

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.
