Description

Lunghin Pass, a triple basin near Piz Lunghin, Switzerland, is a colorful dreamland for explorers and hiking fans. This mountain pass (2,645 m) located in the Swiss canton of Graubünden has a special attribute: the water that runs off it flows towards the North Sea, the Mediterranean Sea or the Black Sea.

We will start our one-day hike on the historical Septimer Pass (2,310 m), located between the green valleys of Bergell and Surses. We will then head towards Pass Lunghin, where we will witness a remarkable feature: water dividing itself three ways on the top.

While we descend, we will get to enjoy an admirable view of the Engadin Valley, packed with pristine lakes that will enhance your senses.

For 5 hours and a half, we will hike 15 km to reach a unique place on Earth: Lunghin Pass. So, if you have the physical condition to take this challenge, book it now! I am waiting for you.

But why stop there? You can hike the amazing Piz Mezdi at nearly 3000 m and get to marvel at its views, on this one-day trip.

Thomas

Mountain Leader

After one year of training by the BAW, the time has come: since April 2016 I have been a certified hiking and snowshoe tour leader.

For some years now I have been travelling in the mountains in summer and winter with great pleasure. I would love to share one or two mountain experiences with you. So if you have time and desire for fresh air, exercise and impressive nature experiences, I am happy:
- to plan and guide a hike "dreamed" by you from easy to sporty
- to plan and carry out a hike according to your wishes.

In winter I carry out snowshoe hikes - again adapted to your individual wishes and possibilities.

With the best mountain and hiking greetings.

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!

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.
