Dreaming of high mountains without the logistics headache. Our guided mountaineering courses take you onto the glaciers of France, Italy and Switzerland with an IFMGA guide at your side. In three to five days you learn rope systems and footwork, practise on snow and ice, then push higher together to reach beautiful 3,000 and 4,000 meter summits in small, friendly teams.
Expect varied, progressive itineraries. In the Écrins you cut your teeth then aim for Roche Faurio at 3,730 meters. From Zinal you climb the Bishorn at 4,153 meters. On Monte Rosa you link multiple 4,000s on the Spaghetti Tour with a night at the Margherita Hut, or choose the shorter version that tags Pyramide Vincent and Ludwigshöhe in three days. Facing Mont Blanc you can traverse the Dômes de Miage, try your first ridge climb in Chamonix, hike three days in the Aiguilles Rouges before finishing on the Tête Blanche, or step onto your first glacier at the Ruitor from a tiny cabane perched above 3,300 meters.
Every trip is built to help you progress at your own pace. Technical gear can be rented when needed, departures run from June to September depending on the itinerary, guides deliver clear briefings, and overnights in welcoming huts keep you close to the action. These guided mountaineering courses focus on learning by doing, safe movement, and the simple satisfaction of reaching a memorable summit together.
