Description

Stand on top of Western Europe during this privately guided 5-day journey to the summit of Mont Blanc! Following 2 days of acclimatization and training climbs, our 3 day summit push will take us to to the highest point in all of the Alps!

As one of the most famous mountains on the planet, Mont Blanc hardly needs an introduction. At 4,809 meters, it is the highest point not only in the Alps, but in all of Western Europe. With a long history of mountaineering expeditions that dates back to the 18th century, Mont Blanc is a legendary mountain that to this day challenges amateur mountaineers from all over the world. If you dream of summiting this gorgeous peak, I can guide you toward that accomplishment!

I’ve designed this trip so that we have a chance to polish our climbing skills on nearby peaks as we acclimatize before our summit attempt. Day 1 will take us to Mer de Glace, considered one of the longest glaciers in Europe, so that we can warm-up our glacier walking and crampon skills. Next, we will spend Day 2 further acclimatizing on a nearby peak.

Finally, on Day 3 we begin our ascend of Mont Blanc itself. We will make our way up to the Refuge de Tete Rousse (3,167 meters), where we will stop for the night. Then, we head toward the summit on Day 4, arriving at the top with time to take in the breathtaking views and to celebrate our achievement. We will spend Day 5 descending the mountain as we return to Chamonix.

Mont Blanc is a challenging mountain, and a very good fitness level is required to participate in this program. Previous mountaineering experience, including prior use of crampons and climbing at altitudes of 4,000 meters, is also required.

Book now and it will be an incredible 5 day adventure as we explore the area around the iconic Mont Blanc as we acclimatize prior to our summit push of the highest mountain in the Alps!

Mountain Guide

After two years of climbing, skiing and mountaineering in New Zealand, Australia and Asia, I choised to start my guiding course.

Now, I am an aspiring mountain guide based between Mont Blanc, Vanoise and Ecrins. It's definitely the right junction to move to a sunny mountain.

I want to share with you my passion and I am happy to give you the skills to reach your summit. I'm used to be patient with the beginners, it's a pleasure to see your progress.

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.
