Head for the Alps with our guided mountaineering courses and multi day trips. From France to Italy and Switzerland you will learn glacier travel, roped progression and safety while staying in mountain huts. Pick a short format to progress fast or dive into a longer immersion. Highlights include a 4 day intro in Chamonix, five days of skills in the Écrins, your first ridge course in Chamonix, a three day mountaineering sampler in the Pyrenees and a wild traverse of the Ruitor glacier with a night in a cliff edge cabin facing Mont Blanc.
Aiming for a first 4000 There are plenty of options. Gran Paradiso in 3 days on the Italian side, the Breithorn in 2 days from Zermatt, the Bishorn in 3 days, or two 4000s in the Monte Rosa range in 3 days, plus the Spaghetti Tour that links several 4000 m summits with a night at the Margherita hut. For bigger ambitions, go for Mont Blanc over 5 days, the Dômes de Miage, Tête Blanche at the end of the Aiguilles Rouges tour, the Haute Route from Chamonix to Zermatt and the full traverse of the Aletsch glacier. All are led by certified mountain guides in small groups.
Prefer rock and long pitches Climb the Mont Aiguille, sample the legendary Verdon walls, progress on the sunny limestone of Finale Ligure, try an easy start on Belgian rock at Yvoir or spend a night on a suspended portaledge. Everywhere, group sizes stay low and technical gear is available to rent. Our guided mountaineering courses and trips give you a clear path to build confidence and experience the high mountains intensely.
