Description
Climbing to the top of Mont Blanc (4,810m) in the Alps of France and skiing down is an adventurer’s dream.
For 2 days, I would like to guide you on this thrilling and difficult expedition up and down Mont Blanc.
Starting in the beautiful resort town of Chamonix at 8:00 am, we will begin our adventure. We will take a scenic ride on the Aiguille du Midi cable car. After getting off the cable car at the mid-station, we will cross the junction on the Glacier des Bosson until we reach the Grand Mulets refuge, where we will spend the night.
On the second day of the trip, we will wake up very early and depart the refuge at 2:00 am. With headlamps on, we will skin up the north end of the Dome. Once we reach the Col du Dome we will take the classic route to the Vallot shelter and the Arete des Bosses before reaching the Mont Blanc summit. After you’re had time to admire the views from the summit, we will ski down the peak’s north face. We will then ski across the Grands Plateaux and back to the Plan de l’Aiguille (2,310m). In all, you will get to descend approximately 2,500 meters!
To participate on this trip you must have advanced level ski mountaineering skills. You also must be in excellent physical condition.
If you are looking for a trip that will challenge you as much as it will amaze you, this 2 day ski mountaineering adventure on Mont Blanc is for you. To experience it for yourself, just send me a request.

As acclimatization is very important, it is recommended that participants climb another 4,000 meter peak prior to this trip. With that said, I can also arrange a 6 day version of this trip, which will give you plenty of time to acclimatize as well as practice the necessary techniques to ensure a successful climb of Mont Blanc. Just contact me for details on this option.

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.
