Description

Come with me on an incredible Via Ferrata adventure!

At first, Via Ferrata can appear to be scary. However, I can assure you that it is as safe as it is enjoyable. You will be properly supervised and securely harnessed at all times. Furthermore, you do not need to be a mountaineering expert to participate in this trip. Instead, all you need to bring is energy, enthusiasm, and perhaps some water, too.

There will be a lot to see on your via ferrata adventure. Prepare to catch amazing views of the famous Mont Blanc (4,808m), as well as the majestic Aiguille du Midi (3,842m) mountain, and to experience the amazing mountain environment in the Alps.

We can tailor your adventure to suit your preferences and needs. The location will depend on when you decide to travel and on the snow cover. One option is the Curalla Via Ferrata in Passy, it takes 4 – 5 hours, and is an intermediate level route. Another option is in Park thermal in Passy which is a bit longer and harder without the view of Mont Blanc but a lower altitude, which is a good alternative in case Curalla is not in good conditions due to the weather. These are just a few ideas that we can plan for.

If you’re interested in joining an unforgettable via ferrata experience in the Chamonix-Sallanches Valley, then contact me today and let me know your preferences and expectations. I look forward to planning an exciting adventure together!

Mountain Guide

I am an IFMGA mountain guide living in Cyprus. I have a passion for exploring the mountains since I was child. Kyperounda, the town where I was born and raised, was my first playground, the place where I started practising different outdoor activities.

First I learnt skiing. Then, I started training and taking part in races and competitions, traveling extensively in Europe. As I am very curious, I kept trying all kinds of sports until I discovered climbing and all its exciting possibilities.

I also developed both my academic and my practical skills in the university, where I studied Outdoor Studies and Sport Science. During that time, I obtained qualifications as a Mountain Leader and a Climber.

Teaching other people is one of the things I like the most. I find a deep joy in helping others to enjoy the mountains as much as I do.

The experience of all these years as well as my technical skills, have taken me closer to my goal: becoming an IFMGA mountain guide.

It was a lot of fun the visibility wasn't that great but there was a lot of snow from recent storm.

Kyriakos was fantastic. Without a knowledgable guide, this is a dangerous trip. Felt very safe with Kyriakos. He also found us totally untracked snow on a busy day. Nice person and very knowledgable. Explore Share was good too, but I gave them 3 stars because I found their site and messaging system clunky. It would also be nice if they offered an option to include all the gear. We had to rent everything before hand.

We had a bluebird day to ski Vallee Blanche. Unfortunately, not a lot of fresh snow but still an absolutely stunning area to explore! Would have liked a bit more time to take photos and ‘take it all in’ because the valley is absolutely stunning. There were a few times we felt a bit rushed, but other than that it was a very positive experience.

Kyros was amazing as a guide. We did not get to do Vallee Blanche due to Aiguille Du Midi not opening however found an amazing alternative. Highly recommend.
