Zermatt 3-Day Guided Ice Training Course

Join me for a 3-Day Ice Training Course on the Theodulglacier in Zermatt.

There are few things more exciting than Ice Climbing. Perhaps that is due to the temporary nature of the surface you are scaling because it lacks the permanence of rock. Or maybe it’s because you are climbing what could easily be viewed as a solidified waterfall. Either way, it is a truly unique experience. And on the Theodulglacier in Zermatt, I will teach you how to enjoy it safely.

Firstly, this training course will focus primarily on practical aspects of Ice Climbing. Not theory. You will learn by doing. Thus making the course one of learning and experiencing at the same time.

A lot will be covered during the course, including, How to Rope up glaciers, How to Walk and Climb with Crampons, Ice Axe Techniques, How to Anchor in Ice and Snow, Belaing Techniques, Proper Behaviour on Glaciers, Important Knots, How to Abseil with Crampons, and Crevasse Rescue. With that much to cover, the course will be intensive, but well worth it.

Finally, on the third day, after 2 Days of Training, we will climb the icy surface of Breithorn (4,164m), where you will use all of the skills you have learned and refined. While also getting the chance to admire all of the amazing scenery The Alps within the Swiss Canton of Valais has to offer.

So let me guide you, and teach you how to properly, and safely enjoy the wonder of Ice Climbing. While also having the chance to immediately practice what you have learned while climbing one of the most beautiful peaks in the Alps, Breithorn.

I’ll be awaiting your message.

And if you would like to join me for a 2-day Rock Climbing Course, also in Zermatt. You can also join me here.
