Description

The ascent of Lagginhorn (4010m) is the perfect option if you want to try summiting a not so technical four-thousander. We will ascend this peak of the Pennine Alps, in Switzerland, through the west ridge. It is also called the normal route.

This ascent will take 2 days. We’ll meet in Saas Grund in the mid-morning. During this first day we’ll go up to the Weissmies hut (2726m). Then, the second day will be summit day!

The difficulty level of this ascent is medium, which is a big plus if you don’t have so much experience. In fact, the West ridge of Lagginhorn is a great option if you are looking for your first four-thousander rock climbing ascent.

The top reasons why I like guiding my friends and clients up there are:
– An aesthetic line
– A technically affordable ascent
– A great training for more demanding tours

Want to try this ascent with me? Then don’t hesitate to send me a request, I would love to take you up there!

Peter

This was a great trip and Explore Share made finding the right trip super easy. Our guide was personable, extremely knowledgeable, and experienced and willing to teach us the skills we would have needed to climb the Matterhorn. Unfortunatly, the conditions were not right to climb so our guide recemmended another trip which was still a great experience and lots of fun.

Emma

Very user friendly platform with timely responses from Explore Share representatives. The trip itself with Tom from Alps Adventures was awesome and ensure that we had an experience that was 100% what we wanted. Recommend both the platform and the guide. Thanks to all for arranging and delivering so well.

I had am amazing time during the 1-day off-piste training course at Hoch-Ybrig. Urs, our main mountain guide, was very helpful in answering my queries before the course, and Lupe from explore-share was helpful in selecting the course. We had 3 groups under Urs, Mario and Patrick, and I was in the group with Patrick. He gave us a lot of nice tips and individualized video analysis. He made a special effort to convey everything in English, since I don't know German. All the participants were very helpful and friendly too! The course is good value for money as skis are included for the weekend in the course price.
