Climbing La Dent Blanche, Pennine Alps

Join a certified mountain guide on this 2-day climbing trip to the Dent Blanche. An exciting adventure for mountain lovers!

Alps

2 Days

Jun - Oct

Description

Emblematic of the Alps, the great 4000 meters have attracted many travellers. They are often a true dream for alpinists. In particular, the Dent Blanche (4323 m) is one of my favourites. The pride of Val d’Hérens… A monument deep in the valley!

Even today, the 4000 meters allow us to experience a true mountain adventure. I propose to spend a night in a cabane before climbing roped the most difficult steps taking us to the summit.

The altitude implies a lack of oxygen. Besides, there are technical and physical difficulties in this journey. Therefore you need to have a good physical preparation to enjoy these ascents.

There are different possible routes to climb the Dent Blanche:
– by the Southern edge, one of the most beautiful normal ways;
– by the direct North edge (André Georges way), very difficult. There is a large course on a very good rock in the “Nez” part, vertical cliff of 300 m in an excellent rock leading to more than 4000 m.
– by the 4 Anes edge, difficult. Wild and engaged…

What people are saying about ES Adventure Guides

Peter

This was a great trip and Explore Share made finding the right trip super easy. Our guide was personable, extremely knowledgeable, and experienced and willing to teach us the skills we would have needed to climb the Matterhorn. Unfortunatly, the conditions were not right to climb so our guide recemmended another trip which was still a great experience and lots of fun.

Emma

Very user friendly platform with timely responses from Explore Share representatives. The trip itself with Tom from Alps Adventures was awesome and ensure that we had an experience that was 100% what we wanted. Recommend both the platform and the guide. Thanks to all for arranging and delivering so well.

I had am amazing time during the 1-day off-piste training course at Hoch-Ybrig. Urs, our main mountain guide, was very helpful in answering my queries before the course, and Lupe from explore-share was helpful in selecting the course. We had 3 groups under Urs, Mario and Patrick, and I was in the group with Patrick. He gave us a lot of nice tips and individualized video analysis. He made a special effort to convey everything in English, since I don't know German. All the participants were very helpful and friendly too! The course is good value for money as skis are included for the weekend in the course price.
