Azimut Montagne

<h5>Ever wished you could reach the top of a magnificent mountain like the ones that stand tall amongst the Alps? But you have no mountaineering experience? Then this 6-days trip to the top of the Barre des Ecrins is perfect for you!</h5>
This journey across the Ecrins is accessible for those who love walking and trekking, but don’t have previous mountaineering preparation. You don’t have to be an expert climber to reach this summit! Yet, the views you’ll get from the top, will be equally impressive as if you had climbed any other challenging peak.

Also, this amazing mountaineering adventure will lead you across many charming towns and enchanting villages in the heart of the french Alps. Two of the villages you’ll get the chance of exploring are Ailefroide and la Grave. Both, are meccas for climbers, as just uttering their names is a synonym of mountaineering around the Ecrins. What’s more, you’ll get to experience their amazing hospitality and learn about their intriguing culture.

Moreover, the Ecrins are a region of wild and pristine natural areas. The animals roam free on this mountain paradise. And along with the flora, they have adapted to its very unique climate. 

This is a trip for the lovers of the mountains, those that adore the high altitudes and dazzling sceneries. It is also made for those that cannot engage in a riskier journey, but wish to get the rewarding views of a challenging ascent, by just walking to the top!

So if you want to join this mountaineering journey, don’t hesitate and contact me. I promise it will be an unforgettable adventure.
