Description

Conquer the Swiss mountain of Dent Blanche in the Pennine Alps, one of the highest alpine peaks.

We’ll begin in the dispersed village of Ferpecle, in the upper Val d’Herens in the southwestern region of Switzerland. We’ll hike up to the Dent Blanche hut, which lies at 3,507 meters. This section will take up 4-5 hours.

Lying at the foot of the Dent Blanche, the hut is located at the watershed with the famed Zermatt valley, overlooking the stunning Ferpecle Glacier.

On the second day we’ll climb the Dent Blanche, one of the highest peaks in the Alps, stretching to 4,357 meters. The summit is geographically important as it’s the meeting point of 3 ridges.

This also means the summit is home to stunning panoramic views of the surrounding mountain peaks.

On the final day we’ll trek back to the starting point from the mountain hut.

Due to the level of difficulty for the 3-day ascent, potential participants are expected to have good physical fitness, as well as good technical abilities.

Get in touch now to reserve your place on an incredible 3-day ascent on the Swiss Dent Blanche, one of the highest summits in the Alps.

Mountain Guide

Hello! I was born in Patagonia, Argentina, and started practicing mountaineering from a very young age. Today I live in the mecca of alpinism, Chamonix, France. I work as a full time mountain guide here in the Alps, in Patagonia and in any place I get the chance to go to.

Whether it is rock climbing in the sun, or ice and mixed routes in the cold north faces in the Alps, I do everything with passion. Glacier travels, icefalls climbing, freeride, ski touring... Luckily the mountain gives us many choices.

I invite you to join me in any of my trips and activities!

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.
