The Grandes Jorasses are a group of granite peaks standing on the border between France and Italy. On this 2-day ascent we will reach its highest point, Pointe Walker, via the normal route. Join me!
Located at the northern part of the Mont Blanc massif, between the Leschaux Glacier and the Aosta Valley, Grandes Jorasses has six summits linked by a 1km-long ridge. The highest one, Pointe Walker (4,208 m), was first climbed in 1868.
On this mountaineering tour we will follow the normal and most classic route to Pointe Walker. It involves climbing over rocks, ice and snowy slopes with some avalanche risk. Therefore, you’ll need a good fitness level and some technical mountaineering skills.
In addition, we will spend a night at the Boccalatte-Piolti Hut (2803 m.), a very remote and charming place even by Mont Blanc massif standards. We will rest surrounded by fabulous alpine landscapes!
So, if you are up for this unforgettable mountaineering adventure in the Grandes Jorasses, please contact me. Let’s reach the impressive Pointe Walker summit together!
We can also get to the top of other amazing Italian peaks: check out my Mount Adamello and my Cevedale’s 13 peaks tours.
From Planpincieux, in Val Ferret, we climb towards the hut “Boccalatte-Piolti”, following a path with fixed ropes. (3/4 hours)
We start in the early morning (2.00 a.m.), following the normal route to reach the top of Grandes Jorasses (Pointe Walker). Back on the same route.

Climbing with guide Guillaume was absolutely a highlight of my 2-week Europe vacation. Originally, we were planning on climbing in the Calanques, but the park was closed due to wind and fire danger. Guillaume chose another amazing location (Pic de Bretagne) based on my climbing abilities and preferences and kindly offered train station pick-up and hotel drop off, which I appreciated very much. The multi-pitch route we did was not only fun but also the right amount of challenge, which I thoroughly enjoyed. The communication from the team (Gauthier) was prompt and clear—highly recommend!

Luis Silva was a great climbing guide and belayer! He taught me how to do moves that were difficult and encouraged me to try routes that were challenging for me! Because of his encouragement, I managed to complete these routes! I really enjoyed the climbs and completed 8 routes in the Sesimbra/Azoia area. The weather was perfect, no direct sun and cool enough to enjoy the climbs. Explore-Share made booking an outdoor climbing experience in Lisbon extremely easy. Luis, our guide, was fantastic, and the platform’s organization was flawless.

We had Léo as a guide for our day climb in Fonty. We were blessed with a knowledgeable, warm, and instructive guide. Communication with Léo and Ivan was smooth and swift. Explore-Share was excellent in arranging everything for our day climb. The communication was quick, and the platform was easy to use, making our adventure stress-free.

Patrick was a great guide. He took us on an intermediate Via Ferrata at Passo Sella. Renato was quick to respond with any outreach on the Explore-Share platform. The booking process was straightforward, and once Patrick was confirmed, all went well. It was a wonderful experience, and I’d highly recommend the platform.
