Description

Climbing Mont Blanc is a must for mountaineering enthusiasts! On this 5-day program, I will guide you to the top of this emblematic peak and make sure you reach it!

At 4,808 m, Mont Blanc is the Alp’s brightest star. It is the highest mountain in Western Europe, and also, one of the most popular. Although climbing Mont Blanc is not technically difficult, getting to the top of this stunning giant poses challenges all the same. This is why I have designed a program with a double chance to reach the summit.

We will begin our adventure in Chamonix practicing crampon and ice ax techniques. The following day, we will enjoy some acclimatization and training on Aiguille de Midi. Finally, on the third day, we will be ready to set off on our Mont Blanc adventure. Depending on the weather, we will have the chance to climb to the summit on days 4 and 5. You can find a full description of the itinerary below.

So, are you ready for a thrilling Mont Blanc climbing experience? Then book your place now and join me on this unforgettable 5-day adventure!

I also offer a 1-day alpine climbing program in the Mont Blanc massif, check it out!

Mountain Guide

I am an IFMGA mountain guide living in Cyprus. I have a passion for exploring the mountains since I was child. Kyperounda, the town where I was born and raised, was my first playground, the place where I started practising different outdoor activities.

First I learnt skiing. Then, I started training and taking part in races and competitions, traveling extensively in Europe. As I am very curious, I kept trying all kinds of sports until I discovered climbing and all its exciting possibilities.

I also developed both my academic and my practical skills in the university, where I studied Outdoor Studies and Sport Science. During that time, I obtained qualifications as a Mountain Leader and a Climber.

Teaching other people is one of the things I like the most. I find a deep joy in helping others to enjoy the mountains as much as I do.

The experience of all these years as well as my technical skills, have taken me closer to my goal: becoming an IFMGA mountain guide.

The trip rating is actually for summiting Gran Paradiso rather than Mont Blanc. Unfortunately the conditions for Mont Blanc were very poor with all the thawing of the permafrost enabling many rock slides.
