Description

I invite you to join me on a great mountain traverse in the Vallée Blanche, at the heart of the Chamonix valley, crossing to the Dent du Gèant glacier, on the Italian side of the Mont Blanc massif.

We will be hiking for 8 kilometers, at 3600 meters of altitude, in a unique place, surrounded by a stunning alpine environment, perfect for a mountaineering initiation.

This is a great opportunity to enjoy a day in the mountains, open to everyone, as you just need a basic fitness level to enjoy it. You will discover the stunning beauty of the Vallée Blanche and the breathtaking view of the Mont Blanc massif mountains.

We will meet at 07:00am at the Aiguille du Midi cable car, in the center of Chamonix. From there we will climb up to 3800 meters, where we will begin the crossing of the Vallée Blanche, to Punta Helbonner, on the Italian side of the Vallée Blanche. In the afternoon we will return to Chamonix.

We had a fantastic trip with Carlos as our guide. We were able to summit Mont Blanc with Carlos’ guidance and couldn’t have asked for more. There were some adverse weather conditions on the final day of our trip and so Carlos changed the refuge bookings to allow us to descend safely albeit with a long summit day. Explore-Share were great throughout with communications and Nico in particular was very helpful. Would definitely recommend but make sure to come prepared as it is a very tough climb!

On 2 July, Carlos and I climbed Mont Blanc. We had a friendly atmosphere throughout the tour. Thanks to Carlos's professionalism and knowledge of the area, i felt completely safe all the time. Thanks Carlos :-)

Although we weren’t able to make it to the top due to a last minute weather change, we truly enjoyed the expedition and Carlos as a guide! We will be trying again next year 😁

Carlos is a very accomplished rock climber, speaks great English, and is fun to be around. We felt very safe while climbing with him on the Sharks Fin, and learned a lot too.

The whole trip was excellent. Explore share did a great job coordinating. Carlos is an experienced guide and effective teacher. I felt safe with him the whole time we were on the mountain. The weather was terrific and we summited just as expected. I highly recommend Carlos Vasquez for Mont Blanc.
