The classic off-piste of Chamonix. 20 Km of skiing over the glaciers below Mont Blanc from 3777m to 1050m.

Climbed for the first time in 1968 by C.Gren, G.Grisolle, A.Poulain, M.Ziegler et André Contamine the “Contamine-Grisole” is a classic technical route on the Triangle du Tacul and one of the slightly easier climbing routes on this face.

A five days programmes designed to maximise the chances of success in tackling this iconic peak of the Swiss Alps.

An excellent training ground or acclimatisation ascent for a more committing objective.

Mont Blanc – the traverse. A 5 day programme designed to maximise the chances of success.

Mont Blanc by the second most used route and slightly harder than the normal route. This trip is only for fit and experienced alpinists.

A moderate climb and good introduction to alpine climbing, Gran Paradiso is also a stunning and accessible peak.

This massive spire situated on the border between France and Italy with its unmistakeable allure is a technical and sought after objective on the list of many alpinists.

With perfect views of Arête de Peuterey on the Mont Blanc this route is a classic. We are offering this, longer, route in place of the ‘normal route’ to Tour Ronde due to reduced objective hazard and aestheticism of the line. Without being ‘out there’ climbing the SE ridge of Tour Ronde is still a serious and demanding day in the mountains and the perfect step-up from Aiguilles Marbrees traverse.

A classic and beautiful route to the summit of Mont Blanc which bypasses Mont Blanc du Tacul and Mont Maudit. Slightly more technical than Gouter route, Mont Blanc by Trois Monts is an aesthetic climb to the highest peak of the Western Alps.
