Program

Day 1

Arrival, transfer to Chamonix and hotel check-in

Upon arrival at Geneva Airport, you’ll be met by your guide. From Switzerland, we’ll head straight to France — to the world-famous mountain town of Chamonix.
The transfer takes about an hour. After checking into the hotel, we’ll review your gear and meet the team for a welcome dinner and briefing.

Day 2

Acclimatization hike to Brévent

Your first introduction to Mont Blanc. We’ll take a scenic acclimatization hike to the summit of Brévent (2,600 m). It’s not a technical route, but the views are absolutely stunning.
At the top, you’ll get your first full view of Mont Blanc in all its glory. In the evening, we’ll return to our hotel in Chamonix.

Day 3

Hike to Tête Rousse Hut

Today we begin our approach to Mont Blanc. In the morning, we’ll take a cable car and then a mountain tram brings us to the foot of the mountain.
From there, we hike across rocky slopes to reach the Tête Rousse Hut (3,161 m), where we’ll stay for two nights.

Day 4

Acclimatization climb to Dôme du Goûter

Early morning starts with an acclimatization climb to Dôme du Goûter (4,300 m).
We begin by crossing the famous “Gouter Couloir,” which the French call “the Death Couloir”. We’ll use fixed lines to ascend a rocky ridge, then continue over snow to the summit.
After the climb, we return to Tête Rousse Hut for the night.

Day 5

Climb to Goûter Hut

We leave Tête Rousse and climb to the Goûter Hut (3,800 m), a high mountain shelter with panoramic views of the Chamonix Valley and Mont Blanc itself.
In the afternoon, we’ll run snow and ice practice sessions nearby. We stay here overnight, just ahead of summit day.

Day 6

Mont Blanc Summit Day

We set off early to ascend Mont Blanc via a sharp, exposed snow ridge.
The name “Mont Blanc” means “White Mountain” in both French and Italian — a reference to the permanent snow cap that crowns its summit year-round. Reaching this peak is a historic and emotional moment for every mountaineer.
After summiting, we make the long descent back to the familiar Tête Rousse Hut for the night.

Day 7

Reserve day

Backup day in case of the bad weather or extra training needed.

Day 8

Return to Chamonix

We descend via mountain tram and cable car back to the beautiful Chamonix Valley. After hotel check-in, you’ll have time for a stroll around town before we gather for a final celebratory dinner in true French style.

Day 9

Departure

Transfer to Geneva Airport and flight home.
