KEBE operates elite ski touring and summer alpinism expeditions across 11+ high-mountain regions worldwide. From the perpetual ice of the Swiss 4,000ers and the Arctic fjords of Norway, to Kyrgyzstan’s virgin powder, Patagonia, and the Himalayas.
Why Ski Touring & Summer Alpinism are Our First Priority
We reject mass tourism. All KEBE expeditions are engineered around fast-and-light alpine style, skinning up perpetual glaciers, and dropping technical lines with verified snowpack stability.
Ascend active glaciers with technical skins, explore untracked powder basins in Norway, Kyrgyzstan, and Nagano without relying on mechanical ski lifts.
June through September ascents across European Alps, Caucasus, and Tien Shan. Granite ridge traverses paired with icy couloirs during prime stable weather.
When summer strikes the Northern Hemisphere, we chase true mid-winter powder in the Southern Alps of New Zealand and the volcanoes of Patagonia (Chile & Argentina).
Engineered for extreme high-altitude alpine performance, zero-fail reliability, and enduring family heritage.
Waterproof, debossed technical credentials certifying IFMGA summit screening, satellite emergency radio frequencies, and personal route logs.
Ultra-light carbon weave touring skis engineered for 40° hardpack stability, crevasse agility, and high-altitude endurance.
3-Layer storm armor with signature blaze orange alpine visibility, heat-sealed seams, and chiseled KB monogram emblem.
Faceted debossed hardcover journals provided to every athlete for telemetry logs, route sketches, and summit validation.
Gappa is a magnificent, off-the-beaten-track corner of Gilgit-Baltistan, in the heart of the Karakoram: meadows, glacier views and untouched ski terrain above a private base camp.
* Number of ski days depends on weather and snow conditions.
International IFMGA Mountain Guide, extreme sports athlete, and a historic pioneer for women in high-altitude mountaineering.
Empowering climbers worldwide with safe, transformative alpine experiences.
Are you ready to plan your next alpine expedition, rock climbing course, or backcountry ski tour?
Zohre Ofoghi is an international mountain guide, extreme sports athlete, and a true pioneer for women in the outdoor industry.
Breaking through strict cultural and societal boundaries from an early age, Zohre has spent over 15 years transforming her passion for the wilderness into a historic career. Driven by an unstoppable spirit of adventure and a deep respect for the mountains, she has dedicated her life to guiding, competing, and pushing the limits of what is possible.
In 2024, after years of grueling examinations across Asia and the Alps (Chamonix), Zohre became the first Iranian woman to earn the international certification from IFMGA/UIAGM.
An elite multi-discipline athlete, she shattered traditional expectations by becoming Iran's first female B.A.S.E. jumper, combining aerial precision with vertical big-walls.
As a competitive ski mountaineer, Zohre represented Iran at the Asian Championships. Following the pandemic, she became a foundational figure in popularizing backcountry ski touring across Iran's majestic mountain ranges.
Guiding deep-powder, high-altitude backcountry lines and glacier crossings.
Leading expeditions on complex snow, blue ice, and mixed ridge terrain.
Instructing technical vertical ascents and multi-pitch safety systems.
Long-distance alpine cycling and self-sustained wilderness expeditions.
Operating internationally between Tehran, Iran and Chamonix, France, Zohre splits her time between leading world-class alpine expeditions and mentoring the next generation of climbers.
As a guide, her primary mission is to provide safe, empowering, and unforgettable mountain experiences for her clients. As an athlete, she continues to stand as a powerful symbol of determination, proving that no peak is out of reach—regardless of where your journey begins.
In high-altitude glaciated terrain, errors translate directly into catastrophe. KEBE operates strictly under three non-negotiable safety pillars:
All technical glaciated tours are captained by fully certified IFMGA/UIAGM mountain guides. We never compromise on rope team integrity.
Every lead guide carries dual Garmin InReach / Iridium satellite devices synced directly with regional rescue aviation (Air Zermatt, Kailash Heli).
In each of our 11+ destinations, expedition logistics, permits, and base camp support are executed directly with registered legal alpine partners.
International High-Altitude Evacuation Insurance (Global Rescue) mandatory for all athletes.
Select your target country, technical discipline, and support tier for an instant cost breakdown.
To preserve expedition safety on glaciated couloirs, participation is subject to verification of your off-piste ski control and mountaineering resume.
Where typical commercial mountaineering companies choose cold, aggressive, or corporate monikers, our expedition house was named deliberately in celebration of maternal warmth, family shelter, and generational love.
In high-altitude mountaineering and the wild expanses of the Karakoram, the Alps, and Central Asia—surrounded by 7,000m summits and perpetual glaciers—leadership is never about conquering nature. It is about uncompromising guardianship of human life: the maternal instinct to protect, shelter, and guide athletes safely across extreme mountain terrain and ensure every single climber returns safely home to their families.
