The ‘All Inclusive Mont Blanc’ package is aimed at seasoned UK hill walkers and mountaineers looking to make the leap up to Alpinist with a professional, committed and experienced team, who will guide you through the kit and ultimately one of the most legendary mountains in the world, Mont Blanc. You’ll head off to the Alps for 5 days of basic Alpine training including crampon, ice axe and rope work on either the Mont Blanc Massif or another 4000m peak (weather dependent), before moving onto the ultimate goal of climbing and summiting Mont Blanc (4809m). You’ll be lead and trained by our experienced Outlier Ascents Guides all of which are IFMGA (International Federation of Mountain Guides Association) accredited on mountain technical training for moving safely on the glacier. Our ratios are on a strict 2:1 to ensure you get the focus and support you need when developing your new skills and giving you the best chance of summitting Mont Blanc in a safe and controlled manner.
The trip has a carefully planned itinerary built around current mountain and weather conditions and usually involves:
- Day 1 – Arrive in the Valley and meet the guides for a thorough safety briefing and break down of the week.
(Chamonix Chalet stay) - Day 2 – Into the mountains for acclimatisation and glacier instruction either on the Mont Blanc Massif itself with some high-altitude scrambling (eg Petit Flambeau, 3,440m) or beginning an acclimatisation peak (Gran Paradiso, 4,061m)
(Mountain Hut stay) - Day 3 – More time in the mountains taking in the high-altitude mountain air either with a more technical scrambling routes (eg a portion or all of the Aiguille d’Entrèves Traverse, 3,600m) or maybe even a higher trekking peak (Mont Blanc du Tacul, 4,248m) or completion of another (Gran Paradiso, 4,061m) before heading back down to Chamonix for a recovery night to aid acclimatisation.
(Chamonix Chalet stay)
- Day 4 – We start our ascent of Mont Blanc with an easy day trek up to the Tête Rousse Hut (3,167m) with a front row view of the infamous Grand Couloir.
(Mountain Hut stay) - Day 5 – This is our preferred Summit Day for Mont Blanc 4,809m. Conditions dependent, you’ll have an early Alpine Start up the Couloir and across the Dôme du Goûter, onto the Bosses Ridge and finally the summit of Mont Blanc, the highest peak in Western Europe. After handshakes, pictures and taking in the views, we’ll head back down to Goûter Hut, 3,835m for the night and well-earned rest.
