This 12 days Ski Touring Cerro San Lorenzo program will take you skiing into the third highest peak in the Patagonian Andes. You won’t find many other places that show Patagonia so pure!
The Cerro San Lorenzo, also known as Cerro Cochrane in Chile, lies in the frontier between Argentina and Chile. With an elevation of 3706m is one of the highest in Patagonia. Also its location is very special. It stands between two continental icefields. And there are three huge glaciers surrounding it. So the Ski Touring Cerro San Lorenzo will provide some of the most amazing views you'll ever see!
Since the easiest way to get there is to fly to Balmaceda Airport, I will pick you up there. Then we'll drive south through the beautiful patagonian landscape. So, in addition to the amazing ski touring expedition you'll be able to appreciate lots of wonderful sites in the way to the start of the hike!
During this trip will be enjoying some typical patagonian dishes, like my special "Cordero Patagónico". Also you'll sleep in different facilities during the trip. From a Hotel to a mountain hut or a tent, you'll experience the Real Patagonia!
Finally I'll guide you through a 3 day hike to the summit of Cerro San Lorenzo. And once in the top we'll enjoy the magical feeling of skiing down a lonely slope! Then we'll hike back down for 2 days and drive back to the Airport.
So please contact me if you are interested in this fantastic Ski Touring Cerro San Lorenzo adventure! And if you want to try other expeditions in Patagonia check out some of my trips: Ski tour in the Frey Hut and Backcountry Skiing in Bariloche.

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.
