Some programs include basic crampon training and short introductions to ice‑axe use — perfect for first‑time glacier walkers staying at a luxury chalet who want a memorable, educational experience.

Many trails are accessible directly from a luxury chalet, allowing you to step out and start a guided or self‑guided walk.

Climbing, via ferrata and alpine courses
Rock climbing crags and via ferrata routes in the area suit different skill levels. Introductory courses teach ropework, belaying and route reading. For a memorable excursion, book a guided alpine climb with an IFMGA/UGM guide who will handle logistics and safety.
