Description

Mont Blanc (4,808m) is the highest peak in the Alps and the entire Western Europe. This 2-day mountaineering trip is your chance to reach its summit via the Gouter Route with an expert mountain guide.

Mont Blanc, or “white mountain”, is surrounded by thundering glaciers and stunning alpine landscapes. Every year, climbing this mountain becomes an ultimate objective for mountaineers from all over the world. On this tour, we will take the Gouter route, which is on the French side and the most popular route to the Mont Blanc summit. It is a long and high altitude climb on the Northwest side of the peak that requires two days.

The Goûter Route is considered the easiest way to reach Mont Blanc’s summit. However, its high altitude and elevation gain requires a good physical and technical preparation. Prior acclimatization is key to success. And you’ll also need to have some mountaineering skills, such as walking in crampon and know how to use an ice axe and ropes.

The first day we will cross beautiful spots like Nid d’Aigle and Tete Rousse Glacier. We will sleep at the Gouter Hut, which offers unique views of the Bionnassay Ridge.

On the summit day, we will head up to Dôme du Goûter, the Vallot observatory and Arête des Bosses. Finally, we will reach the much awaited Mont Blanc summit. Once there, the feeling will be unforgettable. We will enjoy spectacular views of the spires and glaciers of the surrounding massif, the Matterhorn, the Weisshorn and the Gran Paradiso.

So, if you are up for this amazing 2-day mountaineering tour to the summit of Mont Blanc, please contact me! I’ll be glad to show you up the highest peak of the Alps!

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.
