This Val d'Aran off piste snowboard course will teach you to use your splitboard or snow rackets to make the most out of your backcountry experience!
I'll teach you how to use the gear correctly. Also I'll show you techniques to enjoy the slopes no matter what the snow conditions are. And, off course, safety will be a big part of the course. You'll learn to climb peaks and surf them down taking the necessary precautions. Please note that this course can only be taught in Spanish.
Indeed, the course won't be just out in the slopes. You'll learn how to correctly read the weather forecast and chose your mountain approach based on the conditions. So this will give you freedom to see and use the mountain in a much bigger way. Now your imagination will be the only limit!
Plus, I can combine this course to make it for snowboarders and skiers. Hence, if you have friends who ski, we can make a mixed group.
So please don’t hesitate to contact me for this Val d'Aran off piste snowboard course. And specify all your requests so I’ll get everything ready for you.
And if you’d like to check out some of my other winter courses, please take a look at my Val d’Aran ice climbing course or my Val d'Aran avalanches course.

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.
