Description

Take on one of the most exciting high-altitude ridge traverses in the Mont Blanc massif!

This scenic high-altitude traverse mixes technical granite climbing with airy ridge sections and impressive views along the French-Italian border.

Starting from the Skyway Monte Bianco above Courmayeur, this half-day guided climb takes you across narrow granite ridges, airy pinnacles, and short climbing sections up to III+/IV- UIAA. With the Glacier du Géant below and the South Face of Mont Blanc and Tour Ronde surrounding you, the route delivers a real sense of high-alpine exposure from start to finish.

You’ll be accompanied by a certified IFMGA/UIAGM mountain guide, who will help you move confidently along the ridge, use short-rope techniques, and handle the more technical sections along the way.

Rated AD-, with around 450 metres of vertical gain and taking roughly 4 to 5 hours, the traverse is a great choice for intermediate climbers or mountaineers looking for a scenic acclimatization climb with a bit more challenge and exposure.

Mountain Guide

My name is Piergiorgio. I was born in the warm south of Italy and grew up in Florence where I first started climbing.

At the age of 21 I graduated with a degree in Forestry and Environmental Sciences, yet rock climbing had energized my life in such a positive way that I realized that I had to live fully in the vertical world.

It was then that radically transformed my life to pursue my dream of becoming a Mountain Guide and so I moved to Torino to gain the experience and skills required to pass the rigors of my trade.

I'm an IFMGA Mountain Guide.

Join me! I can’t wait to share my greatest passion with enthusiasm and awareness in my favorite environments. After gaining experience and increasing my ability in each discipline, I participated in the IFMGA Aspirant Mountain Guides course and graduated in 2017. Nowadays, my greatest passion is to share with enthusiasm and awareness the most incredible environment: our Alps.
