I invite you to a fantastic spring ski touring day in the Hoher Sonnblick (3105 m), in the Austrian Alps! We will enjoy a great descent on the slopes of this impressive mountain.
The Hoher Sonnblick lies on the border between the states of Carinthia and Salzburg. It's located at the end of the Rauris Valley, so it's also named Rauriser Sonnblick.
This majestic mountain will immediatly catch your eye with its distinctive form. Also, in this area, there were historical gold mines. They gave their name to the Goldberg Group, the mountain range around the Hoher Sonnblick.
So, following the steps of the gold miners, we will climb up over the Goldbergkees glacier and up to the summit! Even more, once we get to the summit, we will get the chance to see a weather station on top. Also, there is a mountain hut, the Zittelhaus!
The Hoher Sonnblick summit offers a spectacular view. It will be a 1500 metres ascent of about 4.30-5 hours. You must be able to ski on all types of snow, in order to join this tour. Also, you need to be in very good shape!
Contact me if you want to join me in this great ski touring day! I will be happy to answer any questions you may have. If you want to try anotyher fantastic ski touring program, check out my Gabler ski touring day!
Mountain Guide
I am a IFMGA certified mountain guide and a climbing lover. I grew up in a small farm in Mittersiller Sonnberg. My parents used to show us the beauty of our mountains. When I was 10 years old I went ski touring for the first time and I really loved it. The next years, I started climbing walls which really fascinated me. I also participated in many competitions.
My career took me to Hohe Tauern National Park where I finished the ranger training to bring visitors to the beauties of my country.
In 2013, I got my official certificate as a mountain guide and ski instructor. A dream came true! Since 2014, I have been working a full time guide, guiding in different areas such as Ortler, Valais, Dolomites, Wilder Kaiser, Muztagh Ata (China)... and of course, in some of our famous mountains such as Großvenediger and Großglockner.
Feel free to get in touch with me! I'll be glad to share with you a great moment in the mountains!

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.
