Description

Otherwise known as the Red Peaks, the Aiguilles Rouges is a beautiful massif positioned opposite the famed Mont Blanc Massif.

On this full day trip, allow me to guide you on a ski tour through the gorgeous Col de Beugeant. This amazing area has some of the best views in the Alps. You will get to see several incredible peaks, including the Aiguille du Belvedere (2,965m) and Le Brevent (2,525m). You will also get to see the area’s unforgettable red coloured needles that rise up high from the Col des Montets to Le Brevent.

The skiing around the Col de Beugeant is fabulous because there is an abundance of thrilling descents, many of which you will get to enjoy!

The Col de Beugeant is also located very close to Chamonix. This amazing, and very popular, French resort area is a fantastic place to visit. Located on the borders of France, Italy and Switzerland, it gives you an additional reason to stay in the area days before and after this amazing trip.

Participants on this trip should be able to ski tour at an intermediate level. They should also be in good physical condition.

The ski touring possibilities around the Col de Beugeant are exciting and glorious. The views in the area are truly picturesque. And it’s location could not be better. So come, spend a day ski touring in this beautiful place. To experience it for yourself, all you have to do is send me a request.

I also lead a 1 or 2 day ski touring adventure at the Breche Puiseux in the Chamonix area as well. This wonderful adventure includes the option of spending a night in the Periades bivouac.

Mountain Guide

I am a native of Chamonix, France. It is there I developed a motivation to discover the various winter sports within the valley. After participating in snowboarding competitions, I enrolled in a mountain guide course, which I completed in 2013. On top of my passion for guiding, I am also passionate about audiovisual art, which I try to incorporate in the framework of my profession.

Because of not so good weather conditions we had to change the destination of our trip. Nevertheless Nicolas was very helpful with some alternatives and we ended up having a great time anyway.

I initially was not planning to submit this review but after much thought, we (the four of us who participated in this activity) feel it is important for others to know the experience that we had. In addition, Nicolas was the organizer but not the guide that took us on our skiing descent so I would like to make sure that is reflected in the review. Jean, the guide that accompanied us, lacked diplomacy, did not treat us with respect and did not respond to a difficult situation as you would hope that a guide would. In this business, I imagine tricky situations occur with some frequency. In our experience when dealing with an undesirable situation with our guide, Jean, we were cursed at repeatedly, and treated in a way that compounded the situation, making it worse. This happened in front our two teen children and the only redeeming part of the experience was providing an example of how NOT to act in a difficult situation. Our recommendation is that you provide training in how to deal with situations that are challenging with diplomacy as they happen continually in life and on the mountain.
