About the guide

Ramiro

Mountain Guide

I am the current director of the GAM-IFMGA courses. I live in the region of Nahuel Huapi and work in Patagonia and the Central Andes. I climbed the mountains Fitz Roy and Torre and climbed on Aconcagua, the Himalayas and the Alps.
I am AAGM Mountain Guide since 2004 and IFMGA Mountain Guide 2005.

I work now mainly for Baguales Mountain Reserve. Only 30 miles south of the city of San Carlos de Bariloche and just one hour drive from the International Airport of the same city, it is a unique place of endless immensity and captivating silence where nature remains untouched.
Boosting innovation, Baguales is a pioneering initiative and the first of its kind both in Patagonia and the Andes Mountains. Throughout the whole year, we offer top quality services in summer and mountain activities in winter: horseback riding, trekking, climbing, mountain biking, canoeing, fishing and skiing. The possibilities of a unique experience in intimate contact with nature are endless.
Because of its immensity, Baguales counts not only on a Lodge and two fully-equipped cabins offering comfort in accomodation and quality in mountain services but also on three unparalleled refuges which have been strategically built in the infinite grandeur of the mountains around.
Baguales, a place where intimacy with Patagonian nature combines with the best quality in mountain lodging and adventure services.

Visit me and experience real wild Patagonia!

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!

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.

Joshua

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.
