Join me on a 3-day ascent to the summit of the spectacular Mont Blanc via the Gouter route.
Stretching 4,808 meters into the crisp air, Mont Blanc is the undisputed king of the Alps. As the highest peak in western Europe, the majestic white summit is spectacular to climb and offers amazing panoramas of surrounding mountain peaks.
On this 3-day ascent we will pass along Gouter, a mountain in the Mont Blanc massif, and the shoulder of Mont Blanc. Measuring 4,304 meters, the Gouter is the third-highest peak in the French Alps.
And with a guide ratio of 1:2 I can dedicate myself to helping and instructing you along the journey, creating a safer and more exciting climb.
Due to the length of this trip, potential participants are expected to have a good level of fitness, as well as decent levels of endurance.
Reserve your place now to conquer western Europe’s highest peak of Mont Blanc via its shoulder mountain of Gouter.

Mountain Guide
I'm an IFMGA mountain guide from Romania and a member of the Austrian Mountain Guides Association (VOBS) and the East European Mountain Guides Association(EEMGA).
My passions are alpinism, rock and ice climbing and ski touring. Over the last decade and a half I have climbed and skied all corners of the World, spent numerous seasons guiding in the Himalayas, New Zealand, Alps and the Carpathians Mountains.
My primary concern as your guide is your safety. With that comes a great deal of fun, learning and engaging in experiences that will be memorable for a lifetime. I hope to have the opportunity to climb with you and help you achieve climbs, summits and experiences not yet imagined!
I have a very strict policy on guide-to-guest ratios for all types of terrain and these are clearly explained prior to engagement. For multi pitch climbs it is usually 1:1 and it never exceeds 1:2. For single pitch venues (especially on instructional outings) it never exceeds 1:4. Higher ratios are possible with the hiring of additional guides and only following prior arrangements. For treks and ski tours the ratios are more generous but depending on the terrain and/or the group’s experience.
I am comfortable in using for guiding and teaching purposes the following languages: English and Romanian.

It was an amazing experience. Daniel Pobega was excellent. Calm, friendly and very professional. Will definitely book another trip with him if not Vallee Blanche but other future activities.

We had a great time , unfortunately Cosmin broke his arm two weeks before the trip but the replacement guide Nicu Durnac was superb.

The plan was to leave early to ascent Mont Blanc via Trois Monts. As a beginner, Cosmin accessed my performance by timing my ascent to the shoulder of Tacul, else he has to change the plan. I met the timing and proceeded to Maudit. Unfortunately, he made a tough decision to head back as the condition at the foot of Maudit was not great. (We heard serac fell at mid day). Being professional, Cosmin changed the plan to ascent Tacul and we did Cosmique Arete. I would highly recommend this trip!
