Not specified

2 Days

Jan, Feb, Mar, Dec


Description

Dare join me on this course and experience the joys that ice climbing has to offer!

Ice climbing refers to the roped climbing of waterfalls and ice gullies. It is a quite rare but thrilling activity!

This 2-day course is designed for those who already have some ice climbing or rock climbing experience and seek to improve their technical skills.

We'll visit the most beautiful spots in the Ecrins, where you'll get to test your skills in the most stunning surroundings. Although I usually organize these courses in the Ecrins area, I can also conduct them in Chamonix or Cogne. So just let me know what works best for you!

Depending on your goals, we will focus on different aspects of ice climbing. We could concentrate on climbing signals, review security basics or introduce autonomy. Hence, with this 2-day intensive course, you'll see yourself take an important leap forward!

To fully profit from this course, you need to be in a very good physical condition. A minimum of 2 and a maximum of 3 people can take this course together. This is both for security reasons and for all of you to take advantage of the learning experience.

If you haven't got any ice climbing experience, my ice climbing initiation day could be the best option for you. Be sure to check it out!

Mountain Guide

I was born in 1990 and I am based in Toulon. I am a high mountain guide and photographer. I started loving climbing during my youth, and I later discovered alpinism. This took me to visit many paths in the Alps, as well as expeditions. At the same time, I became a high mountain guide when I was 24 because I loved it and wanted to share my passion.
I like to travel and I offer my services in the French massifs (Mercantour, Hautes Alpes, Chamonix) and abroad (Switzerland, Italy) all year long. I will do my best to enrich your journey with my experience and to guide you to reach you dream summit.

What people are saying about Robin

Robin was everything you want in a guide: competent, congenial, and careful though seemingly casual. He taught my daughter to belay and allowed me to lead. He was wonderfully patient in letting us figure out a problem rather than tell us how to solve it. We had a wonderful Day 1 tackling short pitches, as I had requested. Day 2, however, was a terrible disappointment. I had asked that we spend it on a multi pitch route, and had high hopes for a challenging day out as my daughter had told Robin on Day 1 she would not be joining us. Since the forecast included rain later, Robin and I met at 7:45am. But the route, while multi pitch, was more walking/scrambling than climbing, so that we made it back to our cars in less than 2 hours. I was shocked to learn we were finished for the day. Given what I paid, this was poor value. I would not be able to recommend Explore-Share as a result.

Nice climb. Run into a bad weather at gorges du Verdon. Was able to change to another climb near Cassis. The view is pretty. Explore share response is quick.

Climbing w Robin in the Gorges Verdon area was a dream come true. Robin is a fun guide to be with. He's very knowledgeable of the routes very safe in his practice and a very strong climber who makes it look easy. We did 2 long multi pitch routes that make me want to come back again and bring my friends.
