Aspirant Guide
UIAGM-IFMGA Aspirant Mountain Guide from Chile
I was born in 1993, and I have always been surrounded by the Andes in my life.
I did my UIAGM-IFMGA aspirant formation in Chile and completed the PRO1 avalanche formation. In my personal career I did several first ski descents in the central Andes and Patagonia and also climbed and ski in the European Alps and Alaska.
I really love to guide in the Andes because they are wild and you really need to be self sufficient with everything and thats something really special in a wild enviroment to experience with a local guide with experience in the place
Come to experience the unique Andes with me.

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.
Stay up-to-date on the best adventures.
