Come and join me for a full day of thrilling ice climbing at Bud' Fit, in the Giant Mountains here in the Czech Republic.
Located in the Elbe Valley region, we will take a short 4 Km hike from the famous Spindleruv Mlyn Ski Resort. After that comfortable, scenic hike, where you will leave behind the bustle of the resort, we will reach Bud' Fit, and a beautiful Ice Fall in the quiet wilderness of the valley**.** Upon reaching the Ice Fall, I will provide instructions and lessons on how to safely climb it. And for those people with experience, I will provide specific tips and advice whenever requested.
The Giant Mountains are beautiful in the summer, but absolutely stunning in the winter. Furthermore, they definitely live up to their name. They are enormous in actual size, as well as the wonder they inspire in anybody lucky enough to see them.
There are several beautiful spots in the Giant Mountains that would be perfect for ice climbing. However, Bud' Fit is the only one where you are authorized to do so. Thus, making this excursion truly special, as you will be doing something truly exhilarating in the only place you can. And once you reach the top of the ice fall, the view will absolutely blow your mind.
So join me, let me guide you up an incredible Ice Fall in the amazing Giant Mountains, in the only spot in the Czech Republic where it's legal to do so.
I'll be awaiting your message.
And if you want to join me for a Ski Touring Expedition in the Giant Mountains. You can also join me here.

While the guide ratio is 4 clients for 1 guide, I much prefer only 2 people, so I can provide you with sufficient attention in order to make your day as amazing possible. I provide harness, ice axe, helmet and crampons; however, I ask that you bring your mountaineering shoes, but if you don't have any I can at least provide you with ski touring boots.

In 2009, I became a full time skiing and climbing instructor.

2010 – APUL B ski instructor
2011 – APUL telemark and snowboard
2012 – ISIA Mark (International ski instructors association)

Spending your holiday with you would be my pleasure. Whether in winter on a ski tour (in Czech Republic or Austria) or in summer among the spectacular sandstone towers.
It will be, with no doubt, a very pleasant experience for all of us. I'm an easygoing, friendly and reliable person with a good sense for responsibility.
Don't hesitate to get in touch with me !

This review is not for Jan Novotny, but for Juras Sefl. Unfortunately communication with Explore share was very haphazard, and I got the feeling if I hadn’t established contact a few aus prior to our climbing date, it wouldnt have happened. No contact from jan Novotny who was indisposed and got his friend Juras to fill in last minute. Juras Sefl was excellent, reliable and took excellent care of my first time climbing teenagers who felt safe in his hands and trusted him. I wasn’t so impressed with the head organisation, as I say, communication and organisation was not optimal and I wasn’t sure what kind of service we would get. No communication with the guide. Anyhow, the overall climbing experience with Juras was excellent.

Guide: Jan Hais! What a great ski tour our threesome had in the Giant Mountains in the spring of 2022, with our guide Jan Hais. The weather was great, as was the culture of alpine huts and mountain lore in the land of the giant, Krkonoše. But the trip was really pulled together in such a successful way by the skill of our guide. He was an expert at understanding our needs. We were strong and experienced in some ways, yet less so in others, particularly in the use of alpine touring gear. Jan expertly knew when to give us room to roam, yet to jump into help when we needed it. Excellent! We did seem to fall through the cracks a little in pre-trip communications—not our guide’s fault. However, Jan listened empathetically to our concerns and his professionalism reassured us. Thank you, Jan Hais. Thanks, too, to the team at Explore-Share for reaching out to us over our pre-trip hiccups.
