Description

Climbing Mont Blanc (4810m), the highest mountain in the Alps, is a must for every mountaineer. I propose to you a 6-day programm, with some previous training and acclimatization before the ascent.

We will meet in the charming village of Chamonix, at the foot of Mont Blanc, where we will have 3 days of training. This way, you will maximise your chances to reach the summit. The ascent to the top of Mont Blanc will take us 3 more days.

During the first day of the training you will learn how to walk on the ice with crampons and how to use an ice axe. On the second day, we will train in the Aiguilles Rouges (2965 m), a perfect setting for a moutain climbing training. Finally, on the third day, we will descend to the Pointe Lachenal (3613 m) from the Aiguille du Midi (3842 m).

These 3 days are the perfect way to get in shape, acclimatize well and learn the right techniques before heading to the summit.

On the fourth day, we will start our ascent, spending two nights at the Tête Rousse refuge (3167 m). Climbing Mont Blanc in 3 days is the best option for a great mountain experience. The summit of this majestic mountain provides a spectacular view!

So if you want to join me on this Mont Blanc ascent, just send me a request and we will start planning this great trip.

What people are saying about Explore-Share

Man

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!

Maxine

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.
