Whether you are organising a School Alpine Expedition, a large group wanting to climb Mont Blanc or a group of friends wanting to climb the Matterhorn together, we can help you to plan your itinerary and organise your guides and accommodation.

Activities

We can organise an itinerary of mixed alpine activities for your group including Mountaineering, Rock Climbing and Via Feratta routes with some nights spent in mountain huts to access high glaciers and peaks such as the Pigne d'Arolla, La Luette, Pigne de la Le and Mont Blanc de Cheilon. These are attainable for groups with no previous alpine experience after training in glacier travel and crampon techniques with our team of qualified International Mountain Guides.
