Join me on this 3-day Monviso (3861 meter) guided ascent!

At 3841 m, Mount Viso (usually called Monviso) is the highest mountain in the Cottian Alps, a group of mountains along the border between France and Italy. I will be happy to safely guide you during our 3-day adventure in order to reach the summit of this amazing mountain in the best possible conditions.

On our second day, we will reach the Quintino Sella Hut and participants will learn about the use of short rope and crampons.

It will be on our third and last day that climbers will reach the Monviso summit and participants will have the option to take on the normal way or, alternatively, the east corner route.So if you are ready for this 3-day Monviso ascent, 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.
