Description

Join me for this fantastic tour in Monte Rosa next summer and climb ten 4000 m peaks in 5 days!

Monte Rosa is the second highest mountain in the Alps. You’ll enjoy breathtaking panorama and amazing views during these days.

The tour starts in the beautiful village of Zermatt, at the foot of the famous Matterhorn. On the first day, with some help from the Cable Car, we’ll get to the Breithorn (4164m) and the Pollux (4092m).

We will walk for 4 to 7 hours a day in steep and difficult terrain, so you need to be in good physical condition. Additionally, you should have experience walking with crampons.

Over the next days in Monte Rosa, we'll summit Castor (4228m), Punto Naso (4272), Parrotspitze (4432m), Vincentpyramide (4215m) and the Signalkuppe (4554m). We'll sleep at the Margherita Hut (4554m), the highest mountain hut in the Alps.

Then, we'll get to the highlight of the tour: the summit of the Zumsteinspitze (4563m). From there, we'll enjoy a stunning sunrise over the north Italian Alps. Then we'll descend to the Monte Rosa Hut and have a delicious second breakfast. After that, we'll continue our descent back to Zermatt.

Next departure: August 27 to 31, 2017

Please get in touch with me if you have any questions and let’s start planning this wonderful tour! I also offer a 6-day program in the High Tauern National Park, famous for its impressive glaciers and peaks. Check it out!

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.
