If you are up for a big challenge, check this out: you can ascend with me to the summit of the highest and most famous mountain in the Alps, Mont Blanc (4810m), via the Gouter route. Surrounded by almost 40 of the highest summits in France, it will amaze you with its white peaks and dramatic scenery.
Only suitable for adventurous climbers who want to reach for the top (literally and figuratively) and witness one of nature’s most breathtaking creations, this program requires previous mountaineering experience and a very good fitness level. Previous acclimatization is also key.
Everything starts with a trip on a cable car and a tramway. We get to the Nid d’Aigle, a train station located at 2372 m of altitude, and the starting point of a fascinating expedition.
That first day, we will ascend to a hut located at almost 3200m (Tete Rousse) and, from there, we will climb Aiguille du Goûter to reach the Goûter Hut, where we will spend the night. There, we should try to catch some zzz’s in order to be ready for our big challenge the next day.
First thing in the morning, we will start the ascent to the top. After more than a thousand meters of climbing and covered by the first rays of the sun, we will reach the summit and enjoy the view for a while before the descent.
By booking this trip now, you will be booking two days of adrenaline and excitement. Join me on an incredible adventure to the Mont Blanc summit.
Meeting point
We take the Bellevue cable car and the Mont Blanc Tramway. Then, we walk on a trail and climb until we reach the Tête Rousse hut. From there, we climb Aiguille du Gouter until we reach the Gouter Hut, where we will spend the night. This whole journey will last 5 hours.
We start our ascent to the top very early. After going by three strategic spots (the Dôme de Goûter, at 4275m, the Vallot hut, at 4362m and l’arête de Bosses) we will reach the summit and its views until the descent. The entire journey will take 12 hours.

Climbing with guide Guillaume was absolutely a highlight of my 2-week Europe vacation. Originally, we were planning on climbing in the Calanques, but the park was closed due to wind and fire danger. Guillaume chose another amazing location (Pic de Bretagne) based on my climbing abilities and preferences and kindly offered train station pick-up and hotel drop off, which I appreciated very much. The multi-pitch route we did was not only fun but also the right amount of challenge, which I thoroughly enjoyed. The communication from the team (Gauthier) was prompt and clear—highly recommend!

Luis Silva was a great climbing guide and belayer! He taught me how to do moves that were difficult and encouraged me to try routes that were challenging for me! Because of his encouragement, I managed to complete these routes! I really enjoyed the climbs and completed 8 routes in the Sesimbra/Azoia area. The weather was perfect, no direct sun and cool enough to enjoy the climbs. Explore-Share made booking an outdoor climbing experience in Lisbon extremely easy. Luis, our guide, was fantastic, and the platform’s organization was flawless.

We had Léo as a guide for our day climb in Fonty. We were blessed with a knowledgeable, warm, and instructive guide. Communication with Léo and Ivan was smooth and swift. Explore-Share was excellent in arranging everything for our day climb. The communication was quick, and the platform was easy to use, making our adventure stress-free.

Patrick was a great guide. He took us on an intermediate Via Ferrata at Passo Sella. Renato was quick to respond with any outreach on the Explore-Share platform. The booking process was straightforward, and once Patrick was confirmed, all went well. It was a wonderful experience, and I’d highly recommend the platform.
