Description
I invite you to join me on a unique an exciting experience: rock climbing with a night on a portaledge, hanging from the rock! If you have an adventurous spirit, come with me on this 2-day guided rock climbing tour in Brévent.
The Brévent Peak lies in Chamonix. It's a mountain in the Aiguilles Rouges range of the French Prealps.
I know that sleeping on a portaledge might sound risky, but I assure you it's very safe. I've slept many nights hanging from a rock! It's an unforgettable experience to sleep there, with no one around. Also, we will enjoy spectacular views of all the Mount Blanc range from there.
We have the option of just sleeping there: going down from the top of the Brévent and install the portaledge not far from the top, or in the middle of the wall. Or we can either climb up from the bottom of the wall and sleep in the midddle. Then, with this option, the day after we would either abseil down or climb up.
Also, it's possible to join this tour with no climbing experience.
If you want to go somewhere else or if the conditions at Brévent are not good, we can experience the same on Arête des Cosmiques or in Annecy, above the lake. These 2 spots are also amazing for such climbing adventure.
So are you in for such an exciting climb in Chamonix? Then send me a request and we will start planning this adventure in the Brévent together. I also offer a guided climb to the Aiguille du Tour, check it out.

Very nice trip. The via ferrate was not very difficult. We could finish it in about 1hour and a half. The remaining time we did another (small, slightly more difficult) via ferrata and some climbing. Great guide.

Pont-à-Lesse via ferrata is gorgeous, and Willy is the best guide one can wish for: very knowledgeable and calm. This was my very first ferrata, and Willy helped me feel and be safe. Many thanks!

Such a great way to experience climbing in another country/area! Ivan was my climbing guide and he was super knowledgable and supportive. We went through warm ups, stretches, and best falling practices before we began. I'm an intermediate climber and I learned a lot and felt very safe! He even showed me exercises that could help improve my technique. I'm super grateful I booked through explore-share and plan to do so again when I'm traveling!

We had a great day with Leo. He drove us to a spot with many problems from easy to hard. He was super supportive and positive and gave excellent coaching and climbing advice. He didn't just give beta but really worked with us on the subtle techniques necessary at Fontainebleau.

Petit couac pendant l'organisation, mais tout est rentré dans l'ordre et c'est très bien passé au final
