Description

With its 4810 meters, Mont Blanc is the highest mountain in the Alps. Therefore, you HAVE to climb it if you are a true mountaineer!

To make sure we will be able to climb this giant, we will ascend Gran Paradiso first. This is a relatively easy 4000er, perfect for a warm-up and acclimatization. Then we move to Chamonix, and from the Cosmiques hut we reach the top of the Mont Blanc.

We will ascend via the Aiguille du Midi route. This route goes through Mont Blanc du Tacul, Mont Maudit and finally Mont Blanc. The views from the top will stay with you forever!

This is a rather demanding excursion and you need to be in good shape. The days are very long! You also need to have some mountaineering experience. In particular, you have to be able to climb on rock and ice, on steep terrain. In fact, I recommend to do a 4000er training beforehand.

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.
