Description

Mont Blanc (4,810 m), a granitic mountain surrounded by valleys and glaciers, is the highest mountain in the Alps and Western Europe and a challenge for mountaineers all over the world.

I propose a 2-day ascent through a classic but demanding route: Les Trois Monts (The Three Monts).

This unique 2-day trip will start at Courmayeur, Italy, a fairytale-like small town in the Aosta Valley. From that point, we will travel to the mountain town of Chamonix, France, to ride the Aiguille Du Midi cable car (3,842 m). Then, we will descend to our shelter for the night, the Cosmiques Hut (3,613 m).

The following day, we will get to the top of the Mont Blanc du Tacul, and climb the Col Maudit, located right at the border between Italy and France, at 4,465 m. Then, we will reach the Col de la Brenva and the Mur de la Cote, to finish at a massive and amazing oasis: the Mont Blanc.

This is a technical ascent that requires previous experience in climbing and the use of ice axes and crampons. Almost all the itinerary is glacial and a few brief sections are steep. Therefore, it is essential to be fit and have some experience in mountain climbing.

Do you feel ready to book this trip? Then do it! I will make sure that you enjoy it.

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.
