Description

Join me on this great 2-day climb and reach the summit of the stunning Jungfrau (4158m). Together with Eiger an Mönch, Jungfrau forms the famous Bernese Alps trilogy, a massive wall overlooking the Bernese Oberland, one of the most characteristic sights of the Swiss Alps.

We will start our climb from the beautiful alpine village of Grindelwald. After 5 to 7 hours of climbing we will reach the Mönchsjoch Hut, where we will spend the night. Next morning, we will start our ascent to the Jungfrau summit, climbing an amazing high altitude alpine route.

I will make sure you enjoy a safe climb every step of the way. Please note you need previous experience on the use of ice-axe and crampons and a good fitness level to join this ascent. We will have some sections of steep mixed climb, with snow and rock until the base of the summit tower.

Jungfrau it is not a highly difficult climb, although through the last section of the ascent, we will also face a steep ice and snow slope, leading us to the easy though quite airy summit ridge. Once at the summit, we will be rewarded with spectacular views over the surrounding mountains.

If you want to join me on this ascent to the summit of Jungfrau, just send me a request. Book your trip and let’s start planning this amazing climb in the Swiss Alps.

Mountain Guide

I am originally from Tokoroa, New Zealand, but I'm now based in Interlaken, Switzerland. I started rock climbing at 19 years and moved on to alpine climbing two years later.

I began guiding in 2003 and am now a fully qualified IFMGA Climbing and Ski Guide. Apart from having extensive experience in New Zealand's Southern Alps, I also know the European Alps very well.

When guiding, I enjoy helping people achieve their dreams: whether it is climbing a summit or acquiring the skills to travel in the mountains. I like watching the dawn turn into a sunrise high on a summit when most people are still asleep and, when rock climbing, I enjoy unlocking a sequence that seemed impossible at first.

When not climbing, I like to ski long, steep, deep powder runs.

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.
