Description

If you’ve always fantasized with a Mont Blanc ascent, this is your chance to make your dreams come true! Nicknamed the “giant of the Alps”, the 4810m-high Mont Blanc is the highest summit in Europe.

Conquering this beautiful summit has always been on your to-do list? I’ll be glad to take you on an expedition adapted to your goals and fitness level.

Even if a Mont Blanc ascent doesn’t present much difficulties at a technical level, high altitude and changing weather conditions make for an important challenge that shouldn’t be overlooked. Thus, hiring the services of an IFMGA-certified mountain guide is key to keeping you safe and maximizing your chances of achieving your goal.

My 5-day program follows the Gouter Route up to the summit. I also offer 2-day and 3-day options. Don’t hesitate to inquire about these as well but be aware that you need to be in excellent physical condition and have previous acclimatization.

The 5-day program is probably the best option for those wishing to do a less intense ascent. It also allows more flexibility to acclimatize and to adapt in case of bad weather. If we reach the summit on Day 4 and have a day to spare, I’ll let you choose the activity on Day 5. We can also use this day to postpone the Mont Blanc ascent in case of bad weather.

I’m a certified mountain guide based in the Hautes Alpes and can guide your expedition both in the region (Mercantour, Hautes Alpes, Chamonix) and abroad (Switzerland and Italy). Don’t hesitate to contact me and I’ll be happy to guide you to the top of Mont Blanc!

Joshua

Avec Robin, j'ai eu la chance de faire l'ascension du Mont-Blanc depuis le Nid d'Aigle. Il a su s'adapter à ma demande qui était de faire l'AR en une journée. Chose parfaitement exécutée. De plus il propose le prêt du matériel. Je recommande vivement, en plus d'être professionnel et pédagogue il est super sympa !
