Description

On this full day hiking adventure, you will get the chance to explore the stunning Pieniny mountains of Poland. This magnificent range is the perfect place for people looking to enjoy a day in the wilderness.

This trip is open all year round. And because of that, despite being in the same place, you will get a completely different experience depending on when you go. For example, during the autumn season, the colours within the range are marvellous, especially when the white rocks of the ridges contrast against the bright red of the changing tree leaves. Meanwhile, during the spring and summer seasons, you will get to see local shepherds tending to their animals. And if you’re lucky, you might get the chance to taste some of their freshly made cheese. Finally, during the winter months, you will get to admire the snow covered trees and peaks, while breathing in the crisp, chilly air.

During the hike, you will get the chance to hike through beautiful limestone gorges, including the Homole gorge. You will also get to stand on top of the Pieniny’s highest peak, Wysoka (1,050m). From this wonderful peak’s summit, you will get to admire the entire range’s amazing landscape, while also getting the chance to gaze at the Tatra mountains.

This day trip in the Pieniny mountains typically lasts between 5 to 6 hours. While not too difficult, there are some challenging spots along the route, especially if it’s raining, as parts can be very slippery. As a result, participants in this trip should be in good physical condition.

No matter when you visit the Pieniny mountains, you will have an unforgettable experience. So send me a request, and let me guide you through this incredible area of natural beauty. I know you’ll have a great time.

I also lead another full day hiking tour through the High Tatras as well.

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.
