Explore the stunning mountains of Bariloche in western Argentina on a backcountry ski tour.

Bariloche is a beautiful town that sits at the foot of the Andes and surrounds the Nahuel Huapi National Park, the oldest in Argentina.

We’ll rise above the famous skiing resort of Catedral, the largest in South America and the Southern Hemisphere, after warming up on some off-piste terrain.

Once we’re ready we’ll traverse along a very scenic ridgeline before descending into the Van Titter Valley. Here we will experience the wild slopes of untracked lines.

After another ascent we’ll reach the picturesque lodgings of the Frey Hut, one of the most scenic huts in all of Bariloche.

The terrain around the Frey Hut is diverse. There are many options of steepness, from spectacular couloirs to wide-open faces. All of which are punctuated with granite towers.

The Frey Hut features wood-panelled walls, a tiled roof, a kitchen and large dining room, comfy beds and a wood chimney.

About the guide

Mountain Guide

Aloja! I´m Diego Simari. I´m 31 years old and I´m still having all my teeth! Patagonian by choice, I grew up in Bariloche - an overwhelming paradise in northern Patagonia - where I still live in.

When I was 19 years old I was introduced into the “vertical world”, andinism, and since then it became my addiction.

Even though I had the chance to meet beautiful places throughout the whole Andes, from Southern Patagonia in Argentina and Chile to the Northern Andes of Bolivia and Perú, I was infatuated by El Chaltén; a little town with not only the most perfect granite needles, and wild surroundings, but with the warmth of real friendship. The place that you dream of!

One thing led to another and I spent more and more time on the mountains… so finally I ended up getting, in 2014, my mountain guide UIAGM IFMGA certificate! Since then I´ve used it as a way for exploring other areas, mainly in El Chalten and Bariloche but also Mendoza, Huaraz and the Alps.

Despite my love for the mountains, dancing has also been my passion since I was young. Part of my living philosophy comes from that side since I’m always trying to find the real rhythm in life! Living without needing too much, exploring, sharing and growing within nature.

And that´s why I found in Patagonia a place for expansion! A place where everything is not only unpolluted but possible.

Come to Patagonia, let me show you this paradise and its magic!!

“The mountain is just the way, enjoying is the real goal”

Thank you explore-share for a wonderful via feratta experience. We have been wanting to learn for a long time but don't have the facilities in Scotland. The guide Mitja was extremely helpful and knowledgeable, answering all my many questions and providing advice. On the day head to take another group but he quickly arranged another guide Borut, who was brilliant. We had a fantastic morning learning via ferrata at Hvadnik in the gorge. It gave us the confidence to later hire our own equipment and go out in Mojstrana. Altogether a five star + experience. Thank you.
