Description
On this 4 day adventure, I would like to take you to the Taschorn summit (4,491m) and on the Dom Traverse (4,545m). Both of these summits loom high above the beautiful towns of Zermatt and Saas-Fee. Thus providing you with some of the most spectacular views in the Alps. Furthermore, these summits are part of the 82, 4000 meter plus peaks in the Alps.
This is a very demanding expedition. The ascent of Taschhorn is at a UIAA 3 difficulty level. As a result, this trip is reserved for experienced mountaineers. Participants should also be in good physical condition in order to keep up with the pace and physical nature of the trip.
Our trip will begin in Herbriggen, where you will spend the first day and night. On the following day we will venture to Tasch before reaching Mischabeljochbiwak (3,847m). We will then continue on to a high bivouac. The next day, we will climb to the summits of Taschhorn and Dom before making our way to the Domhutte (2,937m), where we will spend the night. And on the final day, we will descend to Randa.
Climbing peaks like Taschhorn and Dom are a great way to challenge yourself in the Swiss Alps. And the rewards for that challenge are a thrilling experience and some extraordinary views. To join me on this 4 day adventure, just send me a request. I look forward to guiding you.

What people are saying about E-S Adventure Guides

Rachel
We had a great time bouldering with Léo who was really enthusiastic and encouraging, and who selected a good range of boulders to suit our different strengths whilst still being challenging. Would definitely recommend this as a great way to get introduced to outdoor bouldering at Fontainebleau.
Ruth
Willy was a brilliant instructor and guide. He took us on the Pont a Lesse beginners via ferrata, then onto a slightly harder section, and finally a short top-roped climb. We climbed with our 10 and 12 year olds and he was brilliant and making sure they followed all the safety rules, gave them good advice and on a particularly tricky vertical section, used a top rope for extra security. He was really encouraging and great company. He communicated well beforehand and his English was excellent. He also used to be a photographer before he became a climbing instructor, and he took some fabulous photos which he shared with us afterwards. We had a fantastic time and I would definitely recommend going on a trip with him.
Denis
Willy est un très bon guide. Il nous a conseillé une via ferrata plus compliquée et mieux adaptée à notre niveau avant le départ, ce qui était bien vu de sa part. Il nous a guidé sans nous tenir par la main afin de nous laisser notre autonomie et a prit plein de photos de notre ascension.
Oak
Ivan was aan excellent guide. He was incredibly knowledgeable about the area, very friendly and approachable. He tailored the day to our experience and gave us loads of great tips to increase our enjoyment and improve our skills. I would highly recommend a day's bouldering with Ivan.
