Glacier trekking on the Brèche de la Meije in the Écrins from the Refuge du Châtelleret (2 days)

We invite you to join us on a 2-day glacier trek on the Brèche de la Meije glacier in the Écrins, staying at the Refuge du Châtelleret. Glacier trekking is the activity that connects hiking and the high mountain world, a key skill you need if you want to venture yourself into more challenging mountaineering trips.

The Brèche de la Meije (3357 m) is a glaciated high mountain pass in the Écrins Massif, in the Écrins National Park in Savoie. La Meije (3983m) is the second highest montain of the massif.

This glacier hiking trip is suitable for beginner mountaineers, however you must have a good fitness level, practicing a regular activity. You need to be able to walk more than four hours on high mountain terrain, carrying a light bag.

You will be tied with a rope to a guide and equipped with crampons and ice axe. During this tour, we will cross glaciers and passes together, to climb an easy summit or access a new refuge.

We willl be spending one night at the Chatelleret refuge, a large stone house, surrounded by breathtaking landscapes. Next day we will  have lunch at the Promontoire refuge.

So if you want to join us on this glacier hiking tour, just contact us and book your place! Come join us in the Écrins for a great mountain experience!
