MONT BLANC ASCENT
The Mont Blanc, highest peak in western Europe, is without a doubt one of the most popular mountain in the world and every year many mountainers try to attempt this famous peak.
The ascent is a relatively simple snow route, but requires a high level of physical fitness for the ascent who is in high altitude during a long time - the summit day, the ascent and descent requires 9 to 11 h of continuous effort - and a minimum of walking on ice and snow practice with crampons and ice axe are required.


THE KEY OFF SUCCESS : preparation and acclimatization

For increasing your chances we propose since many years 5 days courses including 3 day of preparation. These 3 days are very important : you will practice ice and snow climbing, walking in altitude on glacier and spend two nights in an altitude mountain hut, very good for your acclimatization.

- Mont Blanc courses from june to september
