Description

Mont Blanc (4,810 m), a granitic mountain surrounded by valleys and glaciers, is the highest mountain in the Alps and Western Europe and a challenge for mountaineers all over the world.

I propose a 2-day ascent through a classic but demanding route: Les Trois Monts (The Three Monts).

This unique 2-day trip will start at Courmayeur, Italy, a fairytale-like small town in the Aosta Valley. From that point, we will travel to the mountain town of Chamonix, France, to ride the Aiguille Du Midi cable car (3,842 m). Then, we will descend to our shelter for the night, the Cosmiques Hut (3,613 m).

The following day, we will get to the top of the Mont Blanc du Tacul, and climb the Col Maudit, located right at the border between Italy and France, at 4,465 m. Then, we will reach the Col de la Brenva and the Mur de la Cote, to finish at a massive and amazing oasis: the Mont Blanc.

This is a technical ascent that requires previous experience in climbing and the use of ice axes and crampons. Almost all the itinerary is glacial and a few brief sections are steep. Therefore, it is essential to be fit and have some experience in mountain climbing.

Do you feel ready to book this trip? Then do it! I will make sure that you enjoy it.

Thank you explore-share for a wonderful via feratta experience. We have been wanting to learn for a long time but don't have the facilities in Scotland. The guide Mitja was extremely helpful and knowledgeable, answering all my many questions and providing advice. On the day head to take another group but he quickly arranged another guide Borut, who was brilliant. We had a fantastic morning learning via ferrata at Hvadnik in the gorge. It gave us the confidence to later hire our own equipment and go out in Mojstrana. Altogether a five star + experience. Thank you.
