Ice Climbing- skills, coaching, dry-tooling, and even guided ascents of grade 6 monsters!

Venture into the exciting new world of ice climbing or hone your skills in some of the best ice climbing locations in Europe - we have access to many spectacular sites in the Chamonix massif, Cogne & the Aosta valley, Sixt, Rjukan, Laerdal, Lofoten, Kandersteg, Adelboden, Gressoney, Val Formazzia, and Val Masino.

 

The mountains of the Alps show their true beauty under a veil of pristine winter snow. With the lower freezing levels, the gullies and waterfalls transform into beautiful frozen ice climbs. Anyone who has ever swung an ice axe into pristine opaque water ice will know that amazing feeling as the axe shaft reverberates, coupled with the most satisfying thud as the pick sinks in giving a perfect placement. As the days draw in and the mercury in the thermometer starts to drop, it’s time to go digging in the loft for all the winter climbing kit. If you’re frustrated with the fickle conditions north of the border, then it’s the time to head to the Alps with guaranteed valley ice from December to March.

And year round ice in the high mountains!!!

 

This is a thrilling sport where you will learn fast and acquire skills useful in all aspects of mountaineering. From Chamonix there are countless options and locations to accommodate all levels.
