Description

Come with me and enjoy a full day of what I think is the best activity I can offer. And that is ice climbing in Chamonix.

The best word I would use to describe ice climbing is unique. Because that is exactly what it is. While it utilises all of the same skills as rock climbing, ice climbing is completely different. Because unlike the secure, stone surface of a mountain, or ridge, when you are ice climbing, you are scaling a frozen wave of water. However, that is what makes this activity so special. The fact that the surface, like the activity itself, is never the same, and is always different, from one day to the next, or even one hour to the next, depending on the weather conditions.

In Chamonix, there is no shortage of beautiful areas to ice climb. And I will make sure that you get to climb up some of the most incredible ice falls you will ever. Also, all of the equipment needed for the climb will be provided. So all you have to worry about is bringing your excitement and wonder. Qualities I know will be increased ten fold when you see and start climbing the icy surfaces Chamonix has to offer.

So come and enjoy a full day of amazing ice climbing. While also keeping in mind that throughout the day you will have ample opportunity to stop and gaze at the sheer beauty of the French Alps. While scaling a sheet of sheer ice.

I look forward to hearing from you.

And if you are looking for more thrills in the Chamonix area. You can also join me for a day of Via Ferrata on this trip. Where you can admire the legendary Mont Blanc mountain.

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
