Climbing La Meije Orientale | France

2 days to ascend the Meije Orientale, one of the most iconic peaks in Oisans (Ecrins mountain range), together with E-S Adventure Guides Team.

Not specified

Alps

2 Days

Jun - Sep


Description

The Meije is probably the most emblematic summit in the Massif de l’Oisans. Meije Orientale (3891m) is the most easterly of its top edges. Its North ridge offers a beautiful snowy affordable race. 

I take my friends and clients up there between June and September.

The climb in 2 days with a night at the Eagle Refuge. I manage up to 2 people. Beyond a second guide is present.

Here is the program that I propose:

Day 1 :

Departure from the Hamlet of Villard-of Arena. Climb to the Eagle refuge. This long climb to the highest refuge of the massif is a separate race. Easy passage to rock and walk on the glacier Tabuchet.

  • Schedule: 6 to 8
  • Elevation: 1750m

Day 2:

Ascent from and descent to the Refuge de l’Aigle. The Tabuchet glacier leads us to the foot of a large snow slope. (40 degrees) Our route continues with a stop joint to the top.

  • Schedule: 4 to 5 hours
  • Elevation: 500m
  • Difficulty: PD level (somewhat difficult). Steep passage snow. Running at altitude.

A good fitness level is required.

I invite you to contact me if this beautiful mountaineering program is what you like. I’d be happy to take you there and make you live a unique experience.

We got a guide for backcountry skiing in Chamonix. The guide was excellent in fulfilling our wishes even though the viability was poor and snow layer thin. Our goals was to in a quiet nature area with not too many people. We ended up with 1000 meter gain and a ski through the forest over a 6 hour period. I was one of my best ski experiences.

We had an amazing experience with Leo. Not only did he take us to a great bouldering location, but he really helped with technique to use for our future climbs. He was able to accommodate harder climbs for my husband while making sure I was still able to climb as a beginner. It was also extra special climbing with a local. Would recommend!
