Description

Chile… another unique place where I like to bring my friends and clients for some incredible skiing.

Based in a confortable lodge in the heart of Patagonia, one hour driving from Santiago, we will leave every day with the helicopter to discover a new area, some new slopes… where nobody goes and where the snow is the best.

I particularly enjoy skiing in Chile because…
– it’s a very good opportunity to go skiing when all the europeans go to the beach…;
– the winter there is mild with pleasant temperatures (15-20° at the lodge);
– we have very easily access to fantastic powder snow;
– we can enjoy different skiing terrains;
– the food and the wine are incredible, the people are very warm and welcoming…the quality of life is unique!;
– we can enjoy hot natural bath / springs;
– we end up in the middle of nowhere, where nobody goes…

The organisation of the trip can be very flexible and adapted based on everyone’s wishes and ski level.

Please get in touch with me if you are interested by this incredible ski experience! I will be delighted to guide you there and share with you some of my secret spots in the Chilean Andes!

    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.
