The Almagellerhütte or Almageller refuge is located in front of Saas Fee in the Valais at 2894 meters high. It is very well-known by mountaineers who want to tackle the Weissmies climbing traverse but less known among rock climbing enthusiasts.
Me and my team of IFMGA mountain guides we offer a 3-day climbing program to discover different climbing routes around the Almagellerhütte including some great ridge traverses like Dri Horlini, the Portjengrat and the Mittelrück ones.
You probably never heard about those names before but I can tell you that these climbing routes are really awesome and accessible in terms difficulty level (max 4C).
Below this description, you can find an example of a 3-day itinerary. If you wish, we can even include into this program the climbing traverse of Weissmies.
I will take maximum 2 people with me on the rope. If there are more participants in your group, one or several other guides of our team will join us.
Please get in touch with me if you are interested about this program or if you need a guide for any other mountain project your would have in mind, during the summer or winter. It will be my pleasure to guide you and share with you my mountain guiding experience.
Once at Almageller mountain hut and if needed, we can spend some time to review the basics of climbing (basic nodes, abseiling technics, roping technics…)
Night at the Almagellerhütte.
And back in the valley at the end of the day.
What are some recommended accommodations near our adventure location?

Mountain Guide
Attracted by the mountains since childhood, I started with climbing and alpinism. I then discovered my passion for ski touring.
I started a Young&Sport instructor training to lead young people in the mountain, accompanied by guides. This experience inspired me to become a mountain guide, and I got certified in September 2015.
I work in a guide's office with other guides friends as Stéphane, Raphael, Christian and Jean-Luc, mountain leader.
What I love the most: make people enjoy, allow them to discover a region, laughing, everything in a safe way.
So if there's something you wish, if you dream of exploring a region or country, don't hesitate to contact me.
See you soon for new discoveries!

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.
