Description

The Encantats mountain range are the “enchanted mountains”. They are at the heart of the Aigues Tortes National Park in the Catalan part of the Pyrenees.

This is the amazingly beautiful setting of a week of ski touring from refuge to refuge. During our time here, we will progress amongst lakes, forests, granitic rock spurs and steep peaks, crisscrossed by wide snowy slopes.

Sun and snow enhance these magnificent landscapes where you will enjoy unforgettable days of ski, and where we will spread the pleasure equally between the climbs and the big runs downhill.

The friendly Catalan refuges which will warmly welcome you every evening are an essential ingredient of this discovery trip in one of the most beautiful parts of the mountains of the Pyrenees.

Do you plan to come to the Pyrenees and wish to live an unique ski touring experience? Then please get in touch with me and let's go there together. It will be my pleasure to guide you there and let you discover a region that I know very well.

Ski touring is a fantastic way to explore unique places in the world. For example, you can also join me in this trip ski touring from a boat in Greenland.

Mountain Guide

With my name I can’t make you believe that I am mountaineer of origin! I am a breton migrant worker who was stranded in the Pyrénées and later in the Alps…
What I like most of my job is the incredible mountain’s support to weave the real relationships in a short time and often the quality with people whom I guide to these beautiful summits. It is with a great pleasure that I put at your disposal my 25 years of experience in the climbing, mountaineering and skiing playgrounds to guide you in your adventure projects. I am also ski instructor and mountain rescuer. See you soon!

Overall the experience was great - Xavier really knew the local area catered to everyones abilities in the group and offered some great advice. I would love to book another day trip (or maybe even a multi day trip!) with Xavier so I could experience some of the peace and quiet you get away from the piestes in the remote areas of the mountains. Would recommend to anyone that wants to explore the mountains away from the crowds.

Goulven a une lecture époustouflante de la montagne. Son histoire personnelle est passionnante et en dit long sur son expertise. Etant guide à travers le monde et co-pilote d’hélicoptère de secours dans les Alpes, on se sent rassuré de le suivre hors des sentiers battus. Je recommande vivement d’être guidé par Goulven, surtout pour des randonnées techniques.

J’ai eu la chance de rencontrer Goulven et d’être guidé par lui sur le Grand Paradis en août 2014. C’est un super compagnon de cordée, un pro de la sécurité, un excellent leader, un défenseur de belles valeurs montagnardes et une personne très riche par le métier diversifié qu’il exerce, guide de haute montagne mais aussi copilote d’hélicoptère.
