Description

Join me on this guided climb to the Arête des Cosmiques summit and discover the high mountain in this beautiful area!

The Arête des Cosmiques is one of the classic climbs in the Chamonix area. It is the perfect introduction to mixed climbing (snow and rock) but requires some mountaineering experience. The route is rated AD (Assez Difficile/Fairly Hard) but you’ll find the crux is quite hard for its rating. It requires some suitable mixed climbing and also abseiling skills.

As we climb up, we’ll enjoy magnificent views of the Aiguille du Midi and the surrounding peaks. This is one of the main reasons why I like to bring my clients to Arête des Cosmiques.

June to September are the best months to climb this route. However, the route can get really busy during these months so try to avoid weekends.

We will meet in Chamonix and take the Aiguille du Midi-Vallee Blanche Cable to the top. From there, we’ll go down to the Col du Midi and then to the Abri Simond hut, where the route starts. It is possible to reach the summit in the same morning.

If you’ve always dreamed of making it to the top of Arête des Cosmiques, contact me now and we’ll arrange the details together. I can guarantee an unforgettable experience!

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.
