I was born in Barcelona, ​​Spain. I became Guide Trekking in Cordillera in 1996 and was promoted as IFMGA Mountain Guide in 2005.

I've spent the last 20 + years working as a High Mountain Guide in the Andes (Patagonia, Aconcagua, Bolivia, Ecuador and Peru), the Pyrenees and Alps.

I've devoted my last years to explore virgin mountain ranges as Cordillera de Carabaya, Cordillera Vilcanota, Cordillera de Yelcho, Quimza Cruz, Torres del Brujo, cordillera del Cerro Castillo, San Lorenzo, San Valentin and some others.

I am half of the year based at Chamonix and the other half in Aysen, around Villa Cerro Castillo, in Chile.

Hernan

Pera es un guía excelente… todo el mundo lo conoce… tuvimos un percance con el clima, por lo cual estaba cerrado el Aiguille du Midi… y rápidamente nos ofreció alternativas, nos cruzamos para el lado italiano y subimos al Torino para realizar las caminatas sobre glaciar…. Una experiencia increíble, lo recomiendo de verdad…

Elena

Pera was great at communicating with me prior and during our climbing day. He chose the perfect location for the climbing goals and weather conditions and made sure I was always safe. I would definitely choose to climb with him again in the Swiss Alps or anywhere else!

Noah

Pere showed us the most amazing experience. It was my first time climbing outdoors, and first time climbing multi pitch. Pere was calm and super knowledgeable. He put us on a great route and gave us an experience that I truly will never forget. Thank you Pere!

A great day traversing the Drus from the Charpoua hut. No one on the route that day except us. The weather proved excellent. Perfect guiding and very secure climbing with Pere !
