Description

Russia is much more than rich history and a fascinating culture. Russia has also a vast territory with magical natural settings. The Kamchatka peninsula is one of these magical places and you will get to explore it on this incredible heliboarding and ski touring 8-day trip.

Kamchatka is an incredible volcanic peninsula located in the Russian Far East, between the Okhotsk and Bering seas. It has over 200 volcanoes, 29 active and the highest being Mount Kljutschevskayay (4.790 m). The peninsula lies at a similar latitude to the UK. However, the cold Oyashio sea current and the arctic winds from Siberia keep it covered in snow most of the year.

The Kamchatka peninsula used to be a forbidden military area, thus it has remained in a natural and wild state. Now it is opened to the public and a few lucky snowboarders and skiers get to explore it.

Because of its wild terrain, many of the best spots for snowboarding are difficult to reach. That is why a helicopter ride is an excellent option. Not only you will reach the most amazing areas: you will also enjoy the stunning views of this wild and magnificent place.

Our MI8 helicopters will take you on a different adventure daily. Imagine yourself gliding along the fjords. Imagine the adrenaline running through your veins when you snowboard down the sides of a volcano. You will pass through fuming vents and immense forests. And at the end of each day, we normally go to relax at the thermal baths near our hotel.

If you want to be part of this exclusive adventure, please send me a message. I will make sure you enjoy this unique and unforgettable experience.

Also, if you prefer skiing in other equally extreme places, check out the other trips I offer, like this one: ski touring from a boat in Greenland.

About the guide

Goulven

Mountain Guide

With my name I can’t make you believe that I am mountaineer of origin! I am a breton migrant worker who was stranded in the Pyrénées and later in the Alps…
What I like most of my job is the incredible mountain’s support to weave the real relationships in a short time and often the quality with people whom I guide to these beautiful summits. It is with a great pleasure that I put at your disposal my 25 years of experience in the climbing, mountaineering and skiing playgrounds to guide you in your adventure projects. I am also ski instructor and mountain rescuer. See you soon!

What people are saying about Explore-Share

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.
