Description

If you are looking for an exciting winter adventure in the Andes, this is an opportunity that you should not miss! Follow me on a ski mountaineering day to the Lanin volcano, near Pucón!

Located 75km from Pucón, on the border with Argentina, Lanin (3,726m) is the highest mountain in the region of Araucanía, in Northern Patagonia. This ice-clad, cone-shaped stratovolcano forms part of two national parks: Lanín (Argentina) and Villarrica (Chile).

After meeting in Pucón, we will hike 7 hours to the summit of Lanin. From there, we will start an awesome ski descent. As well as top-quality powder snow, we will enjoy breathtaking views of surrounding mountains such as Lonquimay, Llaima, Villarrica, Quetrupillan and Osorno!

Please note that this requires a good fitness level: the route is not technical, but its high altitude makes it quite challenging. Furthermore, you should know how to ski on powder snow.

So, if you want to reach the top of the Lanin volcano and ski all the way down, please contact me. Get ready for an unforgettable alpine experience!

I also offer the chance to ski in several spots of the Central Andes. Check it out here.

Mountain Guide

IFMGA/UIAGM Mountain Guide from Chile

I was born in 1990, and I always been surrounded by mountains, with family and friends in the Andes.

I did the first Chilean ascent to Cerro Torre via Ferrari route, four ascents to Mt, Fitz Roy, more than 12 to Torres del Paine and the first alpine traverse of the three towers.

I also climbed in the Himalayas, Yosemite, and other Andean countries such as Argentina, Bolivia and Peru.

I did the IFMGA/UIAGM aspirant course in 2017 in Bolivia, and completed the AIARE level 2 avalanche training.

I work together with my brother Juan (we are the Señoret Brothers). Contact me if you want to discover the most beautiful mountain spots in Chile!

Cristobel was a very knowledgeable guide and he provided a good level of encouragement to push me through hard sections of climbing rather than letting me give up. Unfortunately, my original guide for two days of climbing was unable to make it and so I was rebooked for 1 day of climbing with Cristobel. What was upsetting about this was that it was more expensive to complete 1 day of climbing compared to the two days I was originally booked in for. I ended up having to pay more money for half the climbing. I think Explore-Share could improve by having a more consistent price structure for the guides, or at least being clear about why one guide is more expensive.

Great guide. Picked a well-rounded spot for a new group, with numerous options. Understanding of our lack of time at altitude. Great guy.

Excellent day at Portillo with Cristobal. He gave us several options in a planning session the night before. He also communicated well on the day of about current conditions and what we were seeing. We ended up doing a secondary objective due to what we saw in the field.
