Description

Crossing the Alps along the world famous Haute route is a dream come true for any winter adventurer. And on this 6 day splitboarding tour, I would like to guide you along this incredible journey.

You will see something new and something beautiful every hour of every day along this classic route. The highlights include peaks, glaciers, valleys and alpine lakes. And because you will often be at high altitudes, sometimes as high as 2,900 metres, the vastness from which you will get to gaze will seem almost magical.

Starting in the popular French skiing town of Chamonix, we will make our way all the way to Zermatt, in Switzerland. You will get to see many of the Alps’ most famous mountains along the way, from Mont Blanc (4,810m) to the Matterhorn (4,478m).

Since the Haute route offers such a substantial reward in terms of what you will see, the physical toll is equally substantial. This 6 day adventure is not easy. It is arduous and at times very challenging. As a result, participants must be able to splitboard at an advanced level. Participants must also be in excellent physical shape because there will be constant trekking throughout the 6 day journey. However, you will get plenty of time to rest every evening in a tent or mountain hut.

If you have ever dreamed of having an adventure that is as unforgettable as it is challenging, the Haute route is for you. And I would be happy to guide you throughout this splitboarding trek. All you have to do is send me a request.

Are you looking for something a little less strenuous? If so, you can also join me on this day long snowboarding trip in the Dolomites of Italy.

Mountain Guide

Hi! I'm Renato, IFMGA guide from the Dolomites, and I work together with my colleagues Robert, Bruno, Patrick, Benedetta & Walter (German speaking). If I'm not available to guide you, one of them will take care of you.

I was born in 1961, I live in Campitello di Fassa, in the Dolomites, together with my family. I have two sons, one is a mountain guide, the other is a ski instructor. I am a certified mountain guide since 1982, an instructor of guides, alpine ski instructor and a Federal coach for ISEF.

Being in the mountains has always been my passion, guiding people, teaching them climbing, mountaineering... during the various seasons of the year. I very much enjoy drawing nice curves in fresh powder snow and discover the charm of the frozen waterfalls.

My curriculum and professional mountaineering is made of many ascents and some openings of routes in the Dolomites and the Alps. I climbed in Yosemite Valley (California), Ben Nevis (Scotland) and Norway, Greece, Spain and Sardinia. I did also several high altitude climbs like Mt Denali (Alaska), Ama Dablam (6828m), Cho Oyu (8201m), Manaslu (8163m), Shivling in India (6545m), Cotopaxi and Chimborazo in Ecuador (5897m and 6310m), Patagonia (Argentina).

Feel free to get in touch with me if you are coming in the Dolomites for skiing (alpine, freeride and ski touring), rock climbing, sport climbing and multi pitch climbing. It will be my pleasure to guide you here and let you discover my secret spots.

Renato was not available but he recommended another guide, Robert. I was jetlagged and had barely eaten in 24 hours. It was short notice on my part and I wasn't fully prepared when I showed up. Despite all of this, he was so patient and we made it through the tour. The views were amazing and he took pictures and video during.

Great intro to via ferrata. Our guide was Roberto and he was great. He was at the meeting point waiting for us and was very thorough in checking our equipment before we got onto the climb. He gave us tips along the way as to what to look out for, how to find footholds, etc. He took photos with his phone along the way, and forwarded them to us afterwards, so that we weren't fumbling for them ourselves. Very professional and recommendable.

Our excursion landed on a rainy day and Etienne was great at suggesting alternative options in light of the weather. We ended up having a lot of fun despite the rain and having lunch with locals is a great travelling experience in itself! Thanks to Etienne and Fernando for a great day!
