Climbing La Meije Orientale
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.
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.

What people are saying about E-S Adventure Guides
Chris
Lèo did an amazing job and picked locations with boulders suitable for the whole family, including a six year old.
Willem
Willie is a very kind and experienced person. We enjoyed our climbing with him.
Jo
Our family had a great time with Leo -- he was an all-around fantastic guide. He knew Font so well, he was able to identify the best problems for our group, down to the individual. He was safety-conscious while also being laid back and fun-loving. He was really great with our 10yo and 12yo kids, who have a lot of climbing experience but can definitely still use support and pointers. And he was also great with me (a beginner) and my husband (an expert). On top of all of it, he was fun to climb with, and we all loved watching him get a problem he'd not sent before. A really great day!
Diego
Had a great time! Only wish it was a little longer.
Will
Léo made boldering in the forest accessible while also finding appropriate challenges for us. We had a great time and came away better climbers.
