Description

Let me guide you through this great 4-day adventure, climbing up to the summit of the 4th highest peak in Austria: the Grossvenediger!

This amazing mountain, known as Grossvenediger or Großvenediger, lies just in the heart of the Hohe Tauern, the largest mountain range in the central-eastern Alps. It is a 3662-meter peak on the border of East Tyrol and Salzburg, in Austria. During this climbing trip I will guide you up to the top of this mountain, which is covered by glaciers and offers beautiful views of the Hohe Tauern National Park.

This area is easily accessible from Switzerland via Innsbruck. This tour will not only allow you to reach the summit of Grossvenediger. You can also walk on glacial terrain and wide slopes. Furthermore, in some of our stops we can enjoy some glacier fishing as well.

In order to take the best from this trip and enjoy it to the fullest you will need a good physical fitness. Keep in mind we must walk uphill between 2 and 8 hours per day.

The next confirmed departure will take place from September 10th to Wednesday 13th. I have a few spots available. Don’t forget to bring proper clothes for high mountain expeditions and your glacier equipment. If you don’t have it, please let me know so I can advise you about that.

For further information or if you want to book your place, contact me! It will be my pleasure to lead this amazing climbing trip and guide you in this great trail up to the Grossvenediger summit.

About the guide

Mountain Guide

After my training as a mountain guide (completed in 2009), I moved to Switzerland. I was able to lead many tours as a team leader at the mountain school BergundTal and I gained experience in all areas. In the summer I climbed the 4000s of the Alps with my groups, in autumn and spring the warm rock faces of the Mediterranean coast and in the winter, I toured through the snowy mountains. All in all, I came to about 700 days of management during this time and I was almost two years in a row as a mountain guide with groups in the mountains.

Since I believe that only a motivated mountain guide can be a good (and enjoyable) leader, I decided to reduce my time as a guide last summer (2015). I started again doing wood trading. I like this balanced life very much.
In this way, I hope to be able to provide you with beautiful moments in the mountains!

I would be very happy to meet you on one of my tours or to guide you once again through the mountains!

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.
