Description

Join me on this 3-day Mont Blanc ascent (4810 meters) from Chamonix and reach the highest peak in Europe!

We will start our 3-day adventure from the famous town of Chamonix, France. During the first day of our trip, participants will ascend Aiguille du Midi (3842 meters) in order to acclimatize and prepare to take on the great Mont Blanc.

I have organized this trip in order to get to the top of Mont Blanc, with its 4810 meters, in the best possible condition. On our second day, we will reach the Gouter Hut located at 3800 meters and it will be on our third and last day that climbers will ascend the highest mountain in the Alps.

For this ascent you’ll need to have previous acclimatization, a very good fitness level and some basic mountaineering skills, such as walking in crampons and use an ice axe.

You will find a more detailed itinerary below!

Suitable for advanced climbers only, this Mont Blanc ascent will be an unforgettable experience. So if you are ready for this 3-day climb with acclimatization request to book this trip!

3 days for beginners, 2 days for more experimented .. and depending on the logging, difficulty increases ... should be more visible .. Booking was made personally but not by the organization team Pros: - Andreas’s skill as a guide, impressive - knowledge of the mountain - calm and patience Cons : - preparation required from Tete Rousse vs Goûter .. better information needed - extra costs related to the summit .. food, lift, trains , ....

We were very satisfied with the whole experience. Our guide Matteo was very experienced and taught us a lot during the short trip. He looked after us and made sure that we felt secure even on the most dangerous stages of the ascent and descent. I cannot express enough how happy we were with Matteo's support and guidance. He was very professional during the whole trip and also very jovial and kept us a good company. His knowledge of the mountains and mountaineering is exceptional and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend him to anyone wishing to climb in the Alps.

We were a bit unlucky with the weather, so we didn't summit. But given the conditions, I think we did the best we could, we've scaled some smaller peaks and practiced our spline skills. Matteo is great guide, highly recommend.
