Description

Would you like to enjoy a thrilling climbing adventure on the Grossglockner mountain? Then join me on a program via the normal route.

At 3.798m, the Grossglockner is the highest mountain in Austria. This stunning peak lies on the border between Carinthia and Tyrol. In the warmer months, it is a great mountain climbing spot.

In this program we will be climbing the Grossglockner via the normal route. It's a Two-Day-Climb over rock and glacier with an overnight stay at the alpine hut Adlersruhe or Stuedl Hut. We climb in the nice and pristine landscape of the National Park Hohe Tauern. You will get the chance to enjoy a unique climbing experience and stunning views as well. Of course, I will be there to help you every step of the way.

So, are you ready to climb the awe-inspiring Grossglockner? Then book your place and let me take you to this stunning peak via the normal route.

I also offer a climbing adventure program on the breathtaking Zillertal Alps.

Mountain Guide

I grew up in Tyrol (Austria), fascinated by the mountains at a very young age. This led me to discover the world of climbing at the age of 10. I never would have imagined that I would become so enthralled by it.

I became a full certified IFMGA/UIAGM Mountain and Ski Guide at the age of 22. Since summer 2016 I have had the privilege of introducing you to the wonderful world of mountains.

Whether it's on my home mountains in Tyrol, the 4,000-meter peaks of the Alps, or in the mountains of the Himalayas, I will be happy to guide you!

What people are saying about this trip

Géraldine

Christoph was not our guide on the route, he couldn't make it last minute but one of his colleague from the bergskifuehrer made it. Despite this little last-minute stress, the experience was great. Emanuel our guide was excellent. He was giving very good advice on how to make the best way, we felt very safe and had a lot of fun as well.

Mikey

Chris was excellent to have as our guide. He was very understanding in the moments we struggled on the snow and the rock climbing and constantly encouraged us. We felt very safe knowing he was with us and shared a lot about the mountains and the wildlife. Highly recommend
