Description
Come with me to enjoy a thrilling ice climbing adventure! This fun and exciting activity is perfect for lovers of rock climbing that don’t want to let the winter ruin their time outdoors. And the Chamonix Valley, France is a true paradise for all outdoor activities.
The Chamonix Valley is full of waterfalls that turn into stunning ice climbing spots during the winter. Especially the area close to Cogne Valley, Italy, a true waterfall Mecca. There’s tons of options to choose from for all ice climbing levels, and a variety of forms including columns, bosses, jellyfish, curtains, and free-standing. And, if you decide to stay for more than one day, there are many waterfalls to discover each day.
Ice climbing is an exciting sport but it needs to be taken seriously. It is very important that you follow the correct safety measures. Ice climbing is also my specialty and favorite sport. I’ll make sure to assess the safety of the places we choose before the trip and guide you on the way.
Send your request and let me organize this wonderful trip just for you! Depending on your goals, skills and time available, I’ll make sure to plan the best itinerary possible.

Mountain Guide
Mountains are an important part of my life. All my interests in life are somehow connected with mountains. I have been working with people in the mountains since 2013. From the very beginning as a mountaineering and downhill skiing instructor, and since 2020 as a licensed mountain guide. I work on mountaineering, freeride and ski tourism programs. I live in Chamonix, and I work in different mountain regions, depending on the season.

What people are saying about Maksim
Nina
Maksim was very friendly and well-organized. He had very good knowledge about Mont Blanc and mountains in general, the gear and how to handle Grand Couloir. We always felt safe climbing with him and would gladly join him for another climb in the future.

Maksim is the best guide we could have hope for during our summit of Mont Blanc. His expertise, confidence, and ability to lead was masterful. He was in lockstep with our goals and really made it all possible. I highly recommend him for your journey. Thank you to everyone who helped make this once-in-a-lifetime experience possible.
