Discover the Mountain Jewel of the Western Balkans: Mavrovo National Park
If there’s a place that truly earns the title of a hidden gem in the Western Balkans, it’s Mavrovo National Park. Our weekend tour invites you to explore two of the region’s most remarkable peaks—each offering a unique blend of natural beauty, cultural heritage, and adventure.
You’ll summit Golem Korab (2,764 m), the highest peak in both North Macedonia and Albania, surrounded by untouched wilderness and dramatic alpine scenery. Then, experience the rich cultural landscape of Medenica Peak (2,163 m), where every step is steeped in the traditions and folklore of the Mijak people.
This is more than just a hike—it’s a journey that will transform your perspective on the mountains and leave you with lasting memories.

Proper clothing and gear are essential for a safe and successful mountain trip. While there are certain items and travel clothes you may need for your journey, not all of them will be necessary during the actual mountain tour. These extra items can be left at your hotel and picked up after the tour—bringing a lightweight, foldable bag for this purpose is highly recommended.

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.
