Description

I invite you to join me on a unique an exciting experience: rock climbing with a night on a portaledge, hanging from the rock! If you have an adventurous spirit, come with me on this 2-day guided rock climbing tour in Brévent.

The Brévent Peak lies in Chamonix. It's a mountain in the Aiguilles Rouges range of the French Prealps.

I know that sleeping on a portaledge might sound risky, but I assure you it's very safe. I've slept many nights hanging from a rock! It's an unforgettable experience to sleep there, with no one around. Also, we will enjoy spectacular views of all the Mount Blanc range from there.

We have the option of just sleeping there: going down from the top of the Brévent and install the portaledge not far from the top, or in the middle of the wall. Or we can either climb up from the bottom of the wall and sleep in the midddle. Then, with this option, the day after we would either abseil down or climb up.

Also, it's possible to join this tour with no climbing experience.

If you want to go somewhere else or if the conditions at Brévent are not good, we can experience the same on Arête des Cosmiques or in Annecy, above the lake. These 2 spots are also amazing for such climbing adventure.

So are you in for such an exciting climb in Chamonix? Then send me a request and we will start planning this adventure in the Brévent together. I also offer a guided climb to the Aiguille du Tour, 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.
