This 6-day Piz Bernina ski touring program will strike you as one of the most beautiful adventures of your life!
Let me take you deep into Alps. This 7-day traverse crosses the most eastern side of the Alps. We'll ascend the most emblematic peaks in this region: Piz Palü (3900 m) and Piz Bernina (4048 m).
During the journey, you'll see spectacular glaciers with huge drops and unique scenery. And we'll have the pleasure of climbing Piz Bernina, the highest mountain of the eastern Alps.
Because of these big drops and some highly technical parts of the route, this trip is aimed at skiers with previous experience in alpine traverses. Depending on your wishes, we can make some changes to the itinerary. But with this proposal you'll get to visit the most spectacular and emblematic areas of the eastern Alps.
So please contact me to make this Piz Bernina ski touring program happen. And please specify the number of people in your group and any other request that you may have, so I can make the proper arrangements in advance.
You can also check out some of my other programs, including my 6-day Chamonix freeride skiing program and my 4-day Northern Carros de Foc ski touring program.

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.
