Description

Climbing to the top of Mont Blanc, the highest mountain in western Europe, is a wish upon a star for most climbers around the world. Join me on this Mont Blanc ascent via the Gouter Route and make your dream come true!

Located at an altitude of 4,810 meters, and surrounded by the most important summits of France, Mont Blanc crowns the French Alps. By following the Gouter Route, we’ll explore the easiest but still challenging path to the top of this famous peak. Therefore, this 2-day ascent is ideal for those intermediate climbers who have some experience in mountaineering and are ready to take their skills to the next level.

On our first day, we’ll start of nice and easy, and then, due to the melting snow and the threat of rockfalls, we’ll encounter a few challenges on the last 800 meters. On the following day, we’ll walk on a glacier and hike uphill for about 12 hours. Finally, once at the top, all of our hard work will be rewarded, and we’ll enjoy the thrill of this magical experience!

Itinerary

Day 1: Starting our Mont Blanc ascent

We’ll begin with a relaxed start - do note, however, that as we reach the final 800 meters, melting snow and the risk of rockfalls will introduce some challenges.

Day 2: Summit Day!

The second day takes us across a glacier and up a steep incline, with about 12 hours of hiking ahead. Once at the summit, we’ll be rewarded for all our hard work with the exhilarating feeling of accomplishment and the amazing views that make this experience truly magical.

Inge

Happy for the second time, going mountain climbing with you! Thank you and see you 😉

George

We had a fantastic trip with Carlos as our guide. We were able to summit Mont Blanc with Carlos’ guidance and couldn’t have asked for more. There were some adverse weather conditions on the final day of our trip and so Carlos changed the refuge bookings to allow us to descend safely albeit with a long summit day. Explore-Share were great throughout with communications and Nico in particular was very helpful. Would definitely recommend but make sure to come prepared as it is a very tough climb!

Kornel

On 2 July, Carlos and I climbed Mont Blanc. We had a friendly atmosphere throughout the tour. Thanks to Carlos's professionalism and knowledge of the area, i felt completely safe all the time. Thanks Carlos :-)

Arnout

Although we weren’t able to make it to the top due to a last minute weather change, we truly enjoyed the expedition and Carlos as a guide! We will be trying again next year 😁

Gregory

The whole trip was excellent. Explore share did a great job coordinating. Carlos is an experienced guide and effective teacher. I felt safe with him the whole time we were on the mountain. The weather was terrific and we summited just as expected. I highly recommend Carlos Vasquez for Mont Blanc.
