Description

Join me in the discovery of the beautiful Monte Matto and Argentera during this ski touring trip. It is a round trip, departing from and arriving to Demonte, in Stura Valley.

Through the mythical Mount Bourel, withbreathtaking ski slopes, you enter in the high valley della Meris. The first stop is at the DL Bianco refuge.

The following days will go up some of the major peaks of the Valle Gesso della Valletta. Through lakes and breathtaking views, always with long sunny slopes and spring snow – conditions permitting.

We climb over the Colletto di Valasco and to the super panoramic Fremamorta summit. Then we arrive in front of the Argentera. With its 3297 m of altitude, it is the highest peak of the Maritime Alps.

The Passo di Brocon, the Colle di Chiapous and Punto Nodale are gateways to a severe environment: the crossing from Argentera to Asta, where the high mountain environment is truly impressive.

Then we descended into the valley. The last stage is St. Anne Valdieri, while the last day you climb the lower part of Meris, to return to Stura Valley through the Colle della Marchiana.

Crampons and ice axes are required for this tour, which often has steep steps, grooves and ascents of the mold typically ski – mountaineering.

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.
