Jun - Sep

Description

The Meije is probably the most emblematic summit in the Massif de l’Oisans. Meije Orientale (3891m) is the most easterly of its top edges. Its North ridge offers a beautiful snowy affordable race.

I take my friends and clients up there between June and September.

The climb in 2 days with a night at the Eagle Refuge. I manage up to 2 people. Beyond a second guide is present.

Here is the program that I propose:

Day 1 :

Departure from the Hamlet of Villard-of Arena. Climb to the Eagle refuge. This long climb to the highest refuge of the massif is a separate race. Easy passage to rock and walk on the glacier Tabuchet.

Schedule: 6 to 8
Elevation: 1750m

Day 2:

Ascent from and descent to the Refuge de l’Aigle. The Tabuchet glacier leads us to the foot of a large snow slope. (40 degrees) Our route continues with a stop joint to the top.

Schedule: 4 to 5 hours
Elevation: 500m
Difficulty: PD level (somewhat difficult). Steep passage snow. Running at altitude.

A good fitness level is required.

I invite you to contact me if this beautiful mountaineering program is what you like. I’d be happy to take you there and make you live a unique experience.

What people are saying about E-S Adventure Guides

Aoife

Such a fun experience and Louis was a great guide - I would highly recommend for anyone wanting to try a via ferrata experience!

Kylie

Having tried indoor bouldering, we wanted to experience what outdoor bouldering is like. Leo was knowledgeable and ensured our safety. It was definitely one of the highlights of our trip!

Nikoline

We had a great day with Ivan. He picked a nice area for exploring bouldering at Font and he was good at pushing our boundaries in an empathic way.

Jerald

It was our first time outdoor bouldering and Ivan was extremely friendly and prioritized safety. He also helped guide us through the different routes and outdoor bouldering techniques.

Joshua

My teenage son and I spent two afternoons in April bouldering with our guide, Leo, in Fontainebleau. Leo was an excellent guide and teacher. He selected boulders that were both challenging and within our skill level. Leo also share fun information about the area we were bouldering in and gave helpful information to make sure we got to the right place at the right time. We highly recommend Leo and would gladly do another bouldering excursion with him.
