Description

The Monte Rosa Massif in the Alps of Italy is truly astounding. Consisting of several incredible summits, climbing on this famous massif is an experience that will leave you breathless. That is why I am happy to offer this 3-day trip that will take you to 5 different summits in the majestic massif. Furthermore, during this trip, you will get to climb to and spend a night in the famous Margherita Hut (4,559m).

On the first day of the trip, we will meet at Gressoney. From there, we will make our way up to the beautiful Giordani summit (4,046m). After that, we will go to the Mantova Hut (3,498m), where we will spend the night.

On the second day of the trip, we will leave the Mantova hut and go to the Zumstein summit (4,563m) and then climb to the Gnifetti summit (4,559m) before going to the Margherita Hut, where we will spend the night.

On the final day of the trip, we will descend to the Col du Lys. After that, we will climb to the summit of the Balmernhorn (4,185m) and then make our way up to the top of the Vincent Pyramid (4,215m). From there, we will make our descent back down to Gressoney.

Despite the size of the peaks we will be climbing, this trip is not excessively difficult. In fact, even mountaineering beginners can enjoy it. However, it is important that all participants on this trip are in good physical condition.

One of the best climbs in the Alps, making your way to the various summits of the Monte Rosa Massif is an experience that will provide you with enough memories to last a lifetime. To enjoy this 3-day trip, please send a request.

I also offer a 6-day trip that will take you to the summit of the famous Matterhorn Peak.

I was looking for a local guide for a hike I was planning and came across Explore-Share. They seemed to have good reviews and so decided to give them a try. The experience was very positive and completely happy with their service. I will be using them again for next trip.

Thank you explore-share for a wonderful via feratta experience. We have been wanting to learn for a long time but don't have the facilities in Scotland. The guide Mitja was extremely helpful and knowledgeable, answering all my many questions and providing advice. On the day head to take another group but he quickly arranged another guide Borut, who was brilliant. We had a fantastic morning learning via ferrata at Hvadnik in the gorge. It gave us the confidence to later hire our own equipment and go out in Mojstrana. Altogether a five star + experience. Thank you.

Hello! I have been thoroughly impressed by the service and assistance that explore-share have provided the past couple years in helping to plan my trip to the High Tatras in Poland. I really appreciated the flexibility that they provided in allowing me to rearrange my trip twice owing to covid. They were responsive and communicative throughout. This trip was part of my Stag weekend celebrations and explore-share connected me with an outstanding guide in the form of Marcel - he was an excellent recommendation and we really enjoyed our guided hike in the High Tatras with him. Marcel was an outstanding professional, placed a high focus on preparing well and staying safe, and was also a great guy! Highly recommend. Many thanks and best wishes - Richard
