Description
If you are planning a weekend far from the fierceness of the city, come with me and enjoy the calm and nature of Lesachtal.
The program I am proposing today consists of a guided ski touring weekend among the tree lines and deep slopes of the snow-capped valley of Lesachtal. Lesachtal lies in the location of Carinthia, Austria. It borders the Karnische Alps and the Lienz Dolomites, which is a perfect region for ski touring.
Furthermore, it is a delightful place for the practice of any other kind of winter activity. That’s why I love this region and, as a local guide, I know each corner of the valley better than anyone else. During these two days, I will help you to find the best powder ski runs.
Besides that, while you are ski-touring around the area, you won’t believe the stunning surroundings: deep slopes, white meadows, and a dense forest. This trip always runs from Thursday to Sunday and from Sunday to Thursday. The available departures start at the end of January till the end of March.
If you’d like to join me on this ski tour, please take into account that you’ll need some prior experience in all kinds of terrains. In addition, a good physical shape is also necessary.
Finally, let me tell you that the safety equipment can be borrowed for a cost and on request. In addition, remember to bring your own ski touring equipment, suitable clothes, and a small backpack. If needed, the ski touring equipment has to be borrowed in Obertilliach at Sport Auer“ the day before the course starts.
Additionally, if you are looking for a longer experience, I also offer a 5-day trip (Sunday to Thursday) and an 8-day trip (Sunday to Sunday) in the same area. At the bottom of this description, you’ll find the complete program detailing the day-by-day of the trip.
For any other doubt or if you’ve decided to book your place, please contact me now. Lesachtal and I are waiting for you!

What people are saying about Explore-Share

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.
