Description

If you wish to take part of a fantastic ascent in Patagonia, this 2-day program in the Lanin Volcano is the perfect opportunity for you.

Located on the border area between Argentina and Chile, Lanin Volcano is an active stratovolcano and a very popular point of interest in Patagonia. At an altitude of 3,776 meters, it belongs to the Andes mountain range and it’s inside the Lanin National Park. On this 2-day program, I invite you to reach its summit.

On day 1, we’ll meet at 6.30 am in San Martin de los Andes and drive to the base of the volcano, at an altitude of 1,100 meters. From there, we’ll start a 4-6 hour trek to the base camp, at 2,300 meters. Then, on day 2, we’ll share breakfast at 3.00 am and begin the climb to the summit. After a long and challenging ascent (6-8 hours), we’ll get to the top of the volcano and celebrate. We’ll descend and have lunch around 3 pm in the base camp. Finally, we’ll return to the volcano’s foot. The complete duration of day 2 will be from 10 to 14 hours.

Although the itinerary is very demanding, I can assure you that it’s totally worth it. Reaching the Lanin summit in an exhilarating feat. Furthermore, from the top, we’ll be able to contemplate spectacular views of the Andes and its mountains, lakes, glaciers and forests. As for the requirements, it’s not mandatory to have any prior experience in mountaineering. However, you will need to be physically fit.

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.
