Alpine Rock Climbing
If you can rock climb in the UK then you can rock climb in the Alps. There are routes of all lengths and all grades in fantastic situations with amazing views and fabulous climbing. MAC has clients that come back year after year to explore a new area or a new valley each time. The beauty of many of the rock climbing venues is that they are on slightly lower mountains, which means that you don't have to battle with the affects of altitude and can often miss much of the adverse weather that can affect the high mountains.
Experience
If you can climb HS-VS in the UK, then the Alps are at your finger tips.
Venues?
Areas we have visited in the past include the Bregalia and Piz Badile, Furka pass, Salbitchen, Ticino, Grimsel, Orny, Wiwanni, Chamonix, Spain, Scotland, Italy and loads more.
How Long?
Typically a six-day trip. We will go to where the weather is good and find some climbing to suit your taste and experience.
What about kit & equipment?
You need to provide all your own clothing (please refer to the kit lists). We can provide you with technical equipment such as harnesses, helmets, if required and of course ropes and climbing hardware. We have a selection of rock boots, but if your foot doesnt fit any of our selection, they can be rented in Chamonix if required.
How much does it cost?
We offer a price based on you hiring a guide on a daily basis plus all their expenses this allows maximum flexibility.
Private Guiding is 370 Euros per day plus expenses, please drop us an e-mail for an all inclusive price
When is the best time to go?
The summer season begins in June and gets underway in earnest throughout the months of July and August and then runs though to mid-September depending on conditions. This could be extended either way, by selecting lower altitude or non-Alpine destinations.
