How about six days of skiing in one of the wildest and most beautiful mountain ranges in the Arctic? This is our proposal! Join us on this Kebnekaise 6-day ski tour in the magical Swedish Lapland!
Located far north of Sweden, the Swedish Lapland is known for being the land of eight seasons, for its magical Northern Lights and for its mystical Midnight Sun. At 2,099 meters (6,886 feet) above sea level, Kebnekaise is the highest peak in the country and offers a paradisiac landscape of this remote exotic area where many peaks still have no name.
We’ll start this expedition by using a dog sled or a snowmobile to transport to our charming wooden cabin that will be our accommodation for our first two nights. Situated north of Kebnekaise and at the head of a vast valley of glacial origin, during these days we’ll ascend one or two summits with our skis and then we will start the crossing of the massif towards the south.
By crossing through several hills and over the course of 8 hours, we’ll reach our next accommodation: the “Tarfala” hut. If we are lucky and if the nights are clear, we’ll contemplate some of the incredible northern lights that are so common in the area. On the following day, we will ascend some more peaks and then we will go to the “Kebnekaise Station” where several comfortable and cozy cabins will be waiting for us. This will be the ideal accommodation from where to start our ascent to the Kebnekaise summit.
Please bear in mind that in order to participate in this program all participants will need to have prior ski touring experience as well as a good fitness level.

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.
