Tufas, pockets, steeps, slabs - they’re all there, and they’re all good. Vacation climbing really doesn’t get any better. What’s more, most of the approaches are short, and the variety of settings from the hills to the seaside never seem to get old. This trip is perfect for climbers of any skill level, and is a great place to push your limits, work on your lead game, or just enjoy the ride. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fd5704dc704802ff5528fca/1607913455138-NHMPMBD84J8RWM4Y8A6A/CW+Leonidio+Greece+Climbing++%2885+of+86%29.jpg LEONIDIO CLIMBING VACATION - Food & Accommodations We’ve hand-picked our favorite hotels, restaurants, bakeries and snacks, and we know you’re going to love them. There are few things that beat strolling along an ancient stone path, olive and orange groves all around you, with the sea shining in the distance and the glow of the cliffs above. Add in the spinach pie in your backpack and the memory of last night’s calamari plus the promise of more magical days and dinners to come, and you’ll start to get the picture. We really cannot say enough about just how magical this place is, but trust us - it really is incredible. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fd5704dc704802ff5528fca/1609359914090-Q0R6NM0TNB2U0684Z6LU/Extra+Greece+%28104+of+114%29.jpg LEONIDIO CLIMBING VACATION - Day 1: Welcome to Greece You get yourself to the Athens International Airport and we’ll meet you there. We’ll pick you up and drive you to the Coco-Mat hotel where you’ll be free to explore the enchanting ancient city, marvel at the Acropolis, and dip your finger into the world of Greek food on your own at one of the Plaka neighborhood’s many delightful restaurants. If you want to spend a few days exploring Athens beforehand, just let us know and we can help set you up with a great itinerary to explore on your own, or a local guide if you’d prefer. (We know the Coco-Mat is a funny name btw, but it’s really hip, modern and nice, and has the perfect location - promise.) https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fd5704dc704802ff5528fca/1608247606777-501F8JPQDB9HQZN8BS6Y/Leonidio+Greece+Rock+Climbing+%2826+of+114%29.jpg LEONIDIO CLIMBING VACATION - Day 2: Off to Leonidio We’ll start the day with breakfast at the hotel, getting the whole team together and getting to know each other before we load up for the three hour drive to Leonidio. If the weather is nice, we’ll stop along the way for a short walk through the ruins of one of the largest ancient agoras, or markets, in Greece before arriving at the stunning Hotel Hatzipanayiotis, our home base for the week. You’ll have the afternoon to relax and explore before we head to the beach for dinner on the water. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fd5704dc704802ff5528fca/1607966997108-WV2SPY3ACUVBZFT2YEVY/Leonidio+Greece+Rock+Climbing++%2820+of+86%29.jpg LEONIDIO CLIMBING VACATION - Day 3: Climbing Day #1 We’ll again start with a breakfast buffet and packing a lunch full of freshly-baked goodies before we head out for the day to climb. Most of our favorite cliffs are less than a half hour’s drive from town, with some even walking distance. We’ll spend the day on the rock and come back to town in time for a little downtime before dinner and drinks at the local taverna, home of the absolute best souvlaki on the planet (if you ask us, at least). https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fd5704dc704802ff5528fca/1609204593453-QND3Z6276DHWLPG0F3UN/Leonidio+Greece+Rock+Climbing++%289+of+86%29.jpg LEONIDIO CLIMBING VACATION - Day 4: Climbing Day #2 We’ll repeat our routine with breakfast and gifts from the bakery before heading out to climb again. Depending on the group’s skill levels and goals, we may head to multiple crags before converging again for dinner. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fd5704dc704802ff5528fca/1608247844225-VGUKGAMWJ4DE97N1FQTO/Leonidio+Greece+Rock+Climbing+111.jpg LEONIDIO CLIMBING VACATION - Day 5: Rest Day & Field Trip or Climbing Day #3 For folks who are keen on another day of climbing we’ll head out again, while if folks want a day off, they’ll be free to explore town or join us on a field trip to visit one of the many local sights. Either way we’ll head over to the nearby village of Poulithra for a delicious dinner at one of our favorite restaurants, Myrtoon. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fd5704dc704802ff5528fca/1608235884478-E7JCTDY3M8U4RJ4N4L83/Leonidio+Greece+Rock+Climbing++%2863+of+86%29.jpg LEONIDIO CLIMBING VACATION - Day 6: Climbing Day #4 We’ll once again start with breakfast and this will be our last full climbing day of the trip. It will also be our last dinner in Leonidio, and we’ll make it a special one with a full celebration dinner catered just for us by our hotel’s chef. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fd5704dc704802ff5528fca/1609360284224-HGGJN1QP4M68FLGW5VHP/CW+Leonidio+Greece+Climbing++%2849+of+86%29.jpg LEONIDIO CLIMBING VACATION - Day 7: Half-Day Climbing and Back to Athens We’ll try our best to get an early start for a half-day of climbing before we have to pack up and get ourselves back to Athens. We’ll spend anothernight at the Coco-Mat, and go out for one last farewell dinner. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fd5704dc704802ff5528fca/1608236411643-903NLL91ZI8OB5O46X1I/image-asset.jpeg LEONIDIO CLIMBING VACATION - Day 8: Heading Home Unfortunately all good things must come to an end, and you’ll have to go home.

Once we have the fundamentals dialed, we'll move into common scenarios and their solutions, including how to escape belays from below and above, and how to raise and lower an injured climber safely using effective backups and mechanical advantage haul systems. While that may sound simple, it's anything but! The systems we use in these situations are some of the most complex in the climbing tool box, and will easily take the full day to learn. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fd5704dc704802ff5528fca/1609186349420-1SZZ7RIDLKYET4S1O9CP/CW+Smith+Rescue+5.jpg SELF-RESCUE FOR CLIMBERS - Day 2 – Rescue In the Multipitch Environment On our second day we’ll build on the skills we learned on Day 1 and tackle problems in the multi-pitch environment. We'll practice improvised rope ascension techniques, how to care for an injured climber, and strategies for anchors and rappel descents in rescue scenarios.

Getting to Cortina is easy too, as it’s only a few hours by car from the airport in Venice. Often we’ll pick our guests up and drop them back off, and sometimes they can rent a car if they’re keen to do some exploring on their own. A picturesque Italian ski town, Cortina is located just below the most famous pass of the Alto Adige region, the Passo Falzarego. With a range of accommodations and fantastic bakeries and restaurants from pizzerias to wine bars and Michelin-starred fine dining, Cortina also provides easy access to many of the area’s most classic routes. Our morning drives are usually a half an hour or less, and approaches generally range from ten to twenty minutes on the shorter end, and an hour to an hour and a half for the long ones. From Cortina we also have the opportunity to drive a little farther to some of the area’s other climbing hot-spots like the Passo Sella, Cinque Torri and the Tre Cime di Lavaredo. Often we’ll chose to stay in one of many gorgeous alpine refuges for a night or two along the way, sleeping right underneath the next day’s climb. Calling them huts doesn’t do these places justice though - many of our favorites like the Rifugio Scoiattoli are more like alpine hotels than simple cabins, complete with showers, private rooms, comfy beds and delicious food. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fd5704dc704802ff5528fca/1608751085054-F2UF3UJG15USGB6HP5SJ/image-asset.jpeg DOLOMITES https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fd5704dc704802ff5528fca/1608684409954-A6XX49UPHL9WG3WIOYC7/CW+Dolomites+w+Jorge+Sept+2019+%286+of+152%29.jpg DOLOMITES https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fd5704dc704802ff5528fca/1608742853958-488SHHJIW6EZBB8DK9X6/CW+Dolomites+w+Jorge+Sept+2019+%2812+of+152%29.jpg DOLOMITES https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fd5704dc704802ff5528fca/1608684701071-QEYBMAIHD7JTCGHX7ZG2/James+Torre+Grande++%2816+of+16%29.jpg DOLOMITES https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fd5704dc704802ff5528fca/1608745973257-4E89GZH1TVRSGO8B9B1L/Kori+Dolly-2.jpg DOLOMITES https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fd5704dc704802ff5528fca/1608751286850-OX6IW06GC88BVTOSCP8K/image-asset.jpeg DOLOMITES https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fd5704dc704802ff5528fca/1608684477792-ID8HWMUAVT069S5CF6R8/CW+Dolomites+w+Jorge+Sept+2019+%2863+of+152%29.jpg DOLOMITES https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fd5704dc704802ff5528fca/1608751377186-M3RPEJFIY5K1BJJLQBMT/CW+Dolomites+w+Jorge+Sept+2019+%2857+of+152%29.jpg DOLOMITES https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fd5704dc704802ff5528fca/1608751400717-FYN8XU0KTY4M5LOA6FQA/CW+Dolomites+w+Jorge+Sept+2019+%2880+of+152%29.jpg DOLOMITES https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fd5704dc704802ff5528fca/1608742764504-SWRKCSMKF6LCPQR1DBYM/CW+Dolomites+w+Jorge+Sept+2019+%2821+of+152%29.jpg DOLOMITES https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fd5704dc704802ff5528fca/1608751470761-Z33MGCS4RR4NJDFS0NJA/CW+Dolomites+w+Jorge+Sept+2019+%2831+of+152%29.jpg DOLOMITES https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fd5704dc704802ff5528fca/1608743848150-Q7APS780CNY1KES3SS28/CW+Dolomites+w+Jorge+Sept+2019+%2861+of+152%29.jpg DOLOMITES https://www.nowclimbing.com/chamonix daily 0.75 2021-12-12 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fd5704dc704802ff5528fca/1609439208175-4YH6RDBSDQT96PXC3I02/C%2BWright%2BKuffner%2BArete%2Bfor%2BPrint%2B%25281%2Bof%2B1%2529.jpg CHAMONIX - Getting There and Around Chamonix is easy to get to from the airport in Geneva, just across the border in Switzerland. From there you can rent a car, or hop aboard one of the many regularly scheduled transfers for the hour and a half drive. Perhaps the most famous climber’s town in the world, Chamonix is a lively place to be during climbing season, with an abundance of shops, restaraunts and accomodations. Getting around without a car is easy, as many climbs are accessible with a lift ride from town or one of the many nearby villages. One of the best features of Chamonix’s central location though, is that it allows us the flexibility to move around the region in search of weather, conditions and the perfect climb. As a result, we’ll often cross over to the Val d’Aosta on the Italian side of the Mont Blanc, the Valsavarenche and Gran Paradiso, or even to Switzerland to visit the Matterhorn or one of Zermatt’s many other peaks. There are so many incredible climbs in the area that we’ve spent nearly a decade there and still leave every season feeling we’ve barely scratched the surface. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fd5704dc704802ff5528fca/1639340955639-FCFU5YEIHBFN13KZ9G6Z/13BPhk0458.jpg CHAMONIX https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fd5704dc704802ff5528fca/1639341182569-VKZ0NRVRTY502PTAI3U0/14CLtr0109.jpg CHAMONIX https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fd5704dc704802ff5528fca/1609032197770-VYCWYQCTG01Q7V1WXBDZ/C+Wright+Kuffner+Arete+for+Print+%281+of+1%29.jpg CHAMONIX https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fd5704dc704802ff5528fca/1609032027232-3P4SJ7DPKD94WKRA3R7V/Adam+on+Diretta++%281+of+1%29.jpg CHAMONIX https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fd5704dc704802ff5528fca/1609032039443-NT5RJMD4V00ON9AK5KX3/Heaven+is+a+Trail++%281+of+1%29.jpg CHAMONIX https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fd5704dc704802ff5528fca/1609032048967-ITSHTCUC4Q2FQWZTSNCV/K%26D+View+from+the+Dent_.jpg CHAMONIX https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fd5704dc704802ff5528fca/1609032058703-TOO7K9MFKLXKXW3J31MX/Me+On+Les+Intouchables+%281+of+1%29.jpg CHAMONIX https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fd5704dc704802ff5528fca/1609032119535-DLIRNUAY053LP2EXGTKR/Dane+Midi+2-2.jpg CHAMONIX https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fd5704dc704802ff5528fca/1609032130665-K2D97F5NYCR0Y5CGHWG2/Dane+Rebuffat.jpg CHAMONIX https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fd5704dc704802ff5528fca/1609032138448-9X6H32JG79YB51YV2ER5/Painting+with+the+Aiguilles_.jpg CHAMONIX https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fd5704dc704802ff5528fca/1609032164091-NMEODLSK3X7JEE09BALE/Jorge+Raps_.jpg CHAMONIX https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fd5704dc704802ff5528fca/1609032175035-XO3LQZ3YRCOL51NMZBCN/Jorge+Chere+1-2.jpg CHAMONIX https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fd5704dc704802ff5528fca/1609032206356-IRM90TLVXTSHHAFKOV87/CW+Edited+Site+Image+%28105+of+154%29.jpg CHAMONIX https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fd5704dc704802ff5528fca/1609032207895-DNN5MC8DTH527XAO2A8F/CW+Mont+Blanc+Week+2014-43.jpg CHAMONIX https://www.nowclimbing.com/zermatt daily 0.75 2020-12-31 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fd5704dc704802ff5528fca/1609086380337-6MBFYKO3H8NG0Z8ECW2H/CW+Alps+w+Bruce+2018+%2846+of+74%29.jpg ZERMATT - Getting There and Around Zermatt is easy to reach from airports in either Geneva or Zurich. Meticulously punctual trains run regularly (this is Switzerland after all), or one can rent a car and drive. We like to stay at our friend and third-generation mountain guide Christoph’s hotel, and as it is a world-famous destination for skiers, climbers and tourists alike, Zermatt is full of shops and restaurants of all sorts. Many of our objectives start by either boarding a lift or hiking right from town, while some in the adjacent valleys have us driving around to the villages of Saas Fee, Saas Grund and Saas Amagell. Opportunities exist for a variety of types of climbing, and for day trips, overnights, and multi-day traverses. Some of our favorites include the gorgeous ridges of the Breithorn and Weissmies, the exceptional mixed climbing of the Zinalrothorn and Ober Gabelhorn, the fun, long alpine rock routes of the Jegihorn and Portjengrat, and the so-called Spaghetti Traverse, a brilliant outing that can be in as little as a few days or as long as week, climbing multiple peaks and staying in mountain huts as we weave our way along the Swiss/Italian border of the Monte Rosa. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fd5704dc704802ff5528fca/1609087293949-3GZ2KYZ1Q87E2UHQ1IFA/CW+Alps+w+Bruce+Sept+19+%2828+of+47%29.jpg ZERMATT https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fd5704dc704802ff5528fca/1609087171721-LZ83KFEWJYSF2OK9SZWP/Dan+Matterhorn_.jpg ZERMATT https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fd5704dc704802ff5528fca/1609086581719-ZXRDDRXENIWJTJW9704N/image-asset.jpeg ZERMATT https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fd5704dc704802ff5528fca/1609086713296-CC31PHACJFKSXHYUTXCB/image-asset.jpeg ZERMATT https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fd5704dc704802ff5528fca/1609086984058-YA69X01ALTKZG3YALX2N/CW+Alps+w+Bruce+2018+%2842+of+74%29.jpg ZERMATT https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fd5704dc704802ff5528fca/1609086639507-Q5CP71XJM7W2GGGS2KQ5/image-asset.jpeg ZERMATT https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fd5704dc704802ff5528fca/1609087612928-TX7KOW4CX061EW7G5NGV/CW+Uncategorized+Europe+2014-8.jpg ZERMATT https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fd5704dc704802ff5528fca/1609087630428-DL0FLBTAHFMFWYBEH0VB/CW+Uncategorized+Europe+2014-17.jpg ZERMATT https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fd5704dc704802ff5528fca/1609087643226-7DXH1MCNP9ECTLH99RT3/CW+Uncategorized+Europe+2014-19.jpg ZERMATT https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fd5704dc704802ff5528fca/1609087714168-2UQKSOKB49DX4ZDT4EUT/K%26D+Europe+Summer+15+%28206+of+253%29.jpg ZERMATT https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fd5704dc704802ff5528fca/1609087745243-NAY03JP9DVJGLQ0KAKMK/K%26D+Europe+Summer+15+%28250+of+253%29.jpg ZERMATT https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fd5704dc704802ff5528fca/1609088052980-KKCJQV6AYIQFFNPXG1F1/CW+Alps+w+Bruce+2018+%281+of+1%29.jpg ZERMATT https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fd5704dc704802ff5528fca/1609088301418-BCOLTFN7IRDHZLXT9V5R/Now%21Climbing+Switzerland-Alvarez-14.jpg ZERMATT https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fd5704dc704802ff5528fca/1609170631951-HAW0TD87JPQW2E1Y6GB9/CW+Alps+w+Bruce+2018+%288+of+74%29.jpg ZERMATT https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fd5704dc704802ff5528fca/1609173414531-I83M9NF35L2YW6V3WDV5/image-asset.jpeg ZERMATT https://www.nowclimbing.com/rockies-ice daily 0.75 2025-09-07 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fd5704dc704802ff5528fca/1609215583656-VGFA75T6YWIIS75G2V8K/CW+Rockies+w+Paul+Feb+19+%2850+of+136%29.jpg ROCKIES ICE - Getting There and Around The Rockies somehow seem to remain American ice climbers’ best kept secret, despite the fact that they’re easier to get to than most destinations in the Lower 48. Flights to Calgary are abundant, and Canmore, our home base, is an easy hour and fifteen minutes drive from the airport. Car rentals are cheap, and often with the US dollar and the Euro a little ahead of the Canadian, the rest of a holiday to Canada is relatively inexpensive as well. All of our programs are based out of Canmore, Banff’s less famous next door neighbor, as it’s perfectly located as a central jumping-off point for climbs throughout the range. A beautiful Canadian mountain town, Canmore comes complete with gob-smacking views, great restaurants and bars, supermarkets and other amenities. Each climb is a day trip, and morning drives can range from ten minutes to two and half hours, though we tend to take the long ones sparingly (and they’re always worth it). Conditions are usually good from December through March, though early season days can be short. The bottom line is, if you like to climb ice or even think you’d like to climb ice, you should trust us on this one - come to the Rockies and find out. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fd5704dc704802ff5528fca/1609216518097-UFEPKW39MS74QU4M54PW/Rainbow+Serpent+Hi+Res+%281+of+2%29.jpg ROCKIES ICE https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fd5704dc704802ff5528fca/1609219107380-OIHGY47QXPNQ4H3NDYJQ/image-asset.jpeg ROCKIES ICE https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fd5704dc704802ff5528fca/1609216528773-46G1HI8E3SHNPVI7F6VM/Sorcerer+4.jpg ROCKIES ICE https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fd5704dc704802ff5528fca/1609216616490-BH4TASCQ62G5668Z8QKO/Guinness+Gully+Pano++%281+of+1%29.jpg ROCKIES ICE https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fd5704dc704802ff5528fca/1609216659887-B1JPGMH4NGVPKMGSD9MS/CW+The+Asylum+w+M%26M+%2814+of+51%29.jpg ROCKIES ICE https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fd5704dc704802ff5528fca/1609216682221-YWXILMXX8ST2BY44HZVY/CW+The+Asylum+w+M%26M+%2836+of+51%29.jpg ROCKIES ICE https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fd5704dc704802ff5528fca/1609216704026-X2FTIM7NOAGFY4LO3E0I/Borgeau+Right+w+Landon+%281+of+10%29.jpg ROCKIES ICE https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fd5704dc704802ff5528fca/1609216740797-03PNSE3JKV1RUUUPFTVJ/Paul+Prof+%281+of+1%29-3.jpg ROCKIES ICE https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fd5704dc704802ff5528fca/1609216799546-1T2EKE383B22Y0L4NJ67/CW+Rockies+Ice+Jan+15+%2841+of+67%29.jpg ROCKIES ICE https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fd5704dc704802ff5528fca/1609217330825-VA09M3HCSQ84H2NIZLY9/Rockies+w+GZ+%26+Steve+Feb+19+%2831+of+57%29.jpg ROCKIES ICE https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fd5704dc704802ff5528fca/1609216749305-UF16Q5U9HAWPDBYFHM1L/K%26D+Canada+16-38.jpg ROCKIES ICE https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fd5704dc704802ff5528fca/1609216384679-5FDUI5X6GNY4SWYWH45D/GZ+CANADA+WINTER+TAKEOVER+00005.jpg ROCKIES ICE https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fd5704dc704802ff5528fca/1609216404120-L0UW8X3H81XIUXCQM7SN/GZ+Rockies+%2824+of+40%29.jpg ROCKIES ICE https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fd5704dc704802ff5528fca/1609216439277-YTGZA9HHZTBV3QJ0RCEL/GZ+CANADA+WINTER+TAKEOVER+00006.jpg ROCKIES ICE https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fd5704dc704802ff5528fca/1609216782831-J9C5SP63EQL7DRTXCHRR/CW+Rockies+Ice+Jan+15+%287+of+67%29.jpg ROCKIES ICE https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fd5704dc704802ff5528fca/1609219197768-JAWT41SRVAYILK03LUIX/image-asset.jpeg ROCKIES ICE https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fd5704dc704802ff5528fca/1609216511997-836MRPSA13J7A4MEZI15/Ice+Climb+Lacey+Gibbet+-+South+Ghost+-+Chris+Wright+%2812+of+16%29.JPG ROCKIES ICE https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fd5704dc704802ff5528fca/1609216811000-WDNLO6KQAM59TPM2489Y/CW+Rockies+Ice+Jan+15+%2854+of+67%29.jpg ROCKIES ICE https://www.nowclimbing.com/intro-to-mixed daily 0.75 2020-12-31 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fd5704dc704802ff5528fca/1609261582886-CJRR9YAMBY7MJ5FYGQAT/TMG+Logo.png INTRO TO MIXED https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fd5704dc704802ff5528fca/1609259312228-6A3WYKYA8QKHA3K87L2S/CW+COD+Feb+17-18+2019+%284+of+28%29.jpg INTRO TO MIXED https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fd5704dc704802ff5528fca/1609262329388-MUA4WVY3646RZLG620YU/CW+Special+Herbs+%2818+of+27%29.jpg INTRO TO MIXED https://www.nowclimbing.com/lofoten-ice-mixed daily 0.75 2020-12-31 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fd5704dc704802ff5528fca/1609263906331-BHQFJY5864AS1WPM70Q4/Ice%2Bwith%2BElgin%2B%25282%2Bof%2B3%2529.jpg LOFOTEN ICE & MIXED - Getting There and Around We would unfortunately be lying if we said Lofoten was easy to get to, but then again, we are talking about an island chain north of the Arctic Circle. That said, we aren’t lying when we say it’s worth it. And relatively speaking, it’s not so bad. Flights to Oslo are widely available, and from there it’s a short hop to either the Harstad-Narvik airport or to Svolvær. Right in our backyard, Svolvær is twenty minutes drive away from the lodge, or you can save a few kroner and see a few more sights as you drive the two and a half hours from Harstad. Either way, you’ll be glad you made it to the beautiful Lofoten Ski Lodge. A gorgeous and unique hotel on a quiet fjord near the fishing village of Kabelvåg, the lodge serves as the perfect basecamp for our explorations. With catered meals, private cabins, hot tubs and saunas, it’s cozy enough to let us concentrate on the climbing. All of our climbs are day trips, and drive times range from just a few minutes to a few hours if we decide to poke farther afield. A range of objectives await, from reliable roadside single and multipitch ice classics to lengthier alpine climbs of all sorts, including first ascents. A great place to learn to climb ice and mixed, Lofoten really opens up to folks with prior experience. For backcountry skiers and snowboarders, combining Arctic ice and powder is hard to beat, and makes for a genuinely once-in-a-lifetime trip. Though that said, we’re sure you’ll want to come back. begins with an idea. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fd5704dc704802ff5528fca/1609262486585-AQP1P82T55KP26KWDLCW/northern-alpine-guides+logo.png LOFOTEN ICE & MIXED https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fd5704dc704802ff5528fca/1609264633673-5XASY1LLF4611IENDBHQ/CW+Lofoten+w+Jon+%26+Luka+%2886+of+113%29.jpg LOFOTEN ICE & MIXED https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fd5704dc704802ff5528fca/1609264763648-5I01D8JH2DTSOSGJFW36/KURT+VAGAKALLE+N+%281+of+1%29.jpg LOFOTEN ICE & MIXED https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fd5704dc704802ff5528fca/1609264601495-3WNY44ZB94R7GRCSINGR/CW+Lofoten+w+Jon+%26+Luka+%2876+of+113%29.jpg LOFOTEN ICE & MIXED https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fd5704dc704802ff5528fca/1609264670289-A8JPCRSYCG6JWOMIS9CS/CW+Lofoten+w+Jon+%26+Luka+%2838+of+113%29.jpg LOFOTEN ICE & MIXED https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fd5704dc704802ff5528fca/1609264877664-X7YRKZZZU6W9XUCA499X/Ice+with+Elgin+%281+of+1%29-3.jpg LOFOTEN ICE & MIXED https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fd5704dc704802ff5528fca/1609264927034-C875543HQRW17VH81WL4/Lofoten+Memories_-3.jpg LOFOTEN ICE & MIXED https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fd5704dc704802ff5528fca/1609264943577-7W50U87F2153LEIZMA7Y/Northern+Lights++%287+of+10%29.jpg LOFOTEN ICE & MIXED https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fd5704dc704802ff5528fca/1609264983020-VAU70C27Z9SWL8476UBC/CW+Stortinden+N.+Face+%2B+Scouting+Feb+18+%2838+of+112%29.jpg LOFOTEN ICE & MIXED https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fd5704dc704802ff5528fca/1609265009005-T8BABSK1WFSYGXP8M4FN/Morning+Bread+2.jpg LOFOTEN ICE & MIXED https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fd5704dc704802ff5528fca/1609265011906-MXJ3VDSU8JO7RYWUFOEA/Morning+Bread+3.jpg LOFOTEN ICE & MIXED https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fd5704dc704802ff5528fca/1609267930382-JMIEYKXYL9TEYF62NVF2/CW+Stortinden+N.+Face+%2B+Scouting+Feb+18+%2894+of+112%29.jpg LOFOTEN ICE & MIXED https://www.nowclimbing.com/policies daily 0.75 2026-01-02 https://www.nowclimbing.com/email-signature-image daily 0.75 2021-01-03 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fd5704dc704802ff5528fca/1609691857578-S95ROPWGQWRIWS16XL0G/200px+PNG.png Email Signature Image https://www.nowclimbing.com/learn-to-lead-climb-course daily 0.75 2021-02-06 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fd5704dc704802ff5528fca/1611430219992-QLJJE5CEWJHYDQZ8MWL8/Climbing+Latest+Rage+Smith+Rock LEARN TO LEAD https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fd5704dc704802ff5528fca/1611427731880-H537PQVPAGTZQ21AND82/Matt+Sport+Climbing+at+the+Monument+Smith+Rock+Oregon LEARN TO LEAD https://www.nowclimbing.com/finale-climbing-vacation daily 0.75 2021-11-18 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fd5704dc704802ff5528fca/1622844839677-DX6HWWCKVG8SI9C5XJMZ/GabrieleCanuFeelms_A7309685.jpg FINALE CLIMBING VACATION - Climbing Whether you climb 5.4 or 5.14, the crags of Finale offer some of the most fun and accessible sport climbing in Europe. The area is famous for pocketed faces, but it also has tufas, steeps and slabs in abundance. And while Finale is better known for the gorgeous crags dotted about its many hills and valleys, it also boasts some fantastic sea cliffs right on the water. If you’ve never tried climbing above a crystal blue sea with the waves lapping below, it’s an unforgettable experience that we can’t recommend enough. You’ll have to take our word for it that vacation climbing really doesn’t get any better, and don’t be intimidated - the sea cliffs offer some of the most moderate grades in the area. What’s more, most of the approaches in the area are short, and the variety of settings from mountains to coast never get old. If you feel comfortable climbing 5.8-5.10 (or harder) in the gym, you’ll love Finale as its style of climbing is just pure fun. Each day we’ll head out in small groups of up to five climbers, and we’ll make sure you’re paired with climbers and climbs that match your ability so you don’t have to worry about being held back or pushed too far. Like all of our sport climbing vacations, this trip is perfect for climbers of any skill level, and is a great opportunity to learn new skills, push your limits, work on your lead game, or just enjoy the ride. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fd5704dc704802ff5528fca/1624230461204-6BL54YNNPWJTLXC15EDY/GabrieleCanuFeelms_DJI_0260.jpg FINALE CLIMBING VACATION - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fd5704dc704802ff5528fca/1621971184606-YCVZJX4V9P3CGNPZ1IJR/AdobeStock_207134276.jpeg FINALE CLIMBING VACATION - Food & Accommodations Italian food needs no introduction, and Ligurian cuisine is about as good as it gets. Renown for its olive oil even throughout Italy, the region is also famous for seafood dishes like burrida, its signature breads like farinata and focaccia, and perhaps its most famous export, pesto. The basil-laden classic we know and love is actually pesto alla genovese, as in from Genova, just a short drive up the coast, and that’s just the start. We’ve hand-picked our favorite restaurants, bakeries and snacks to give you a taste of it all. We also know that waking up in the morning somewhere really special is hard to beat, so we’ve chosen our accommodations to make sure you feel it every time you get back to your room. After all, the climbing and the food are important, but this is meant to be vacation and we want it to feel like it. In Milan we’ll be staying at the unbelievably gorgeous downtown gem of the Palazzo Segreti, a charming little slice of modern Italian style in the old city, and in Finale Ligure we’ll be making the Hotel San Pietro Palace our home for the week. We know you’re going to love them both. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fd5704dc704802ff5528fca/1621786285031-TLSKLU0U7Y0DWZ56GYKB/AdobeStock_53799681.jpg FINALE CLIMBING VACATION - Day 1: Benvenuti in Italia! You get yourself to the Malpensa International Airport in Milan and we’ll meet you there. We’ll arrange your transport to the Palazzo Segreti hotel where you’ll be just a short walk from the famous Piazza Duomo with its cathedral and historic shopping galleria. You’ll be on your own for the evening to explore the historic city center where your only job will be to find something tasty for dinner and try to get some sleep. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fd5704dc704802ff5528fca/1620500575625-FPYXNL4RMSX8UX5ZBJ8W/unsplash-image-OHXIIR_F0g4.jpg FINALE CLIMBING VACATION - Day 2: Off to Finale We’ll start the day with breakfast at the hotel before we load up for the two and a half hour drive to Finale Ligure. We’ll stay at the beautiful and historic Hotel Pietro Palace, just a few minutes walk from the beach. You’ll have the afternoon to relax, take a swim, and explore a little before we head out to dinner to get our first taste of some of the dishes that make the region famous. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fd5704dc704802ff5528fca/1622849485421-86GQ9P7QR1S9AMLE0J99/GabrieleCanuFeelms_DJI_0208.jpg FINALE CLIMBING VACATION - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fd5704dc704802ff5528fca/1622845147226-ZBPCEXJ9KEFVPCVD0KHH/GabrieleCanuFeelms_DJI_0081.jpg FINALE CLIMBING VACATION - Day 3: Climbing Day #1 We’ll start the day right with some proper Italian coffees, another breakfast buffet, and packing a lunch full of goodies before we head out to climb. Most of our favorite cliffs are less than a half hour’s drive from town, and we’ll spend the day on the rock and come back to town for a little downtime before dinner and drinks. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fd5704dc704802ff5528fca/47321c4a-0fce-4537-a28e-48588649b72f/Finale+Re-Edit+%287+of+13%29.jpg FINALE CLIMBING VACATION - Day 4: Climbing Day #2 We’ll repeat our routine again with breakfast and treats from the bakery before heading out to climb again. Destinations include the classic Monte Cucco, the sea cliffs of Capo Noli, and maybe even the neighboring valley of Val Pennavaire and Castelbianco. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fd5704dc704802ff5528fca/1621901537919-KV3JVPL4SECUV6FW2MZR/AdobeStock_55897058.jpeg FINALE CLIMBING VACATION - Day 5: Rest Day, Mountain Biking, or Climbing Day #3 For folks who are keen on another day of climbing we’ll head out again. For those who want to give their arms a break, they’ll be free to explore town, lay on the beach (no rest day in Italy is complete without gelato), or head out with a local mountain bike guide. We’ll also be located a short walk from the medieval walled village of Finalborgo, the very definition of charming, and a perfect place to get lost. Luckily whatever you choose, the climbing, riding, eating and lounging are all top notch. We’re also going to give you the night off with no group dinner just so you don’t get tired of us. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fd5704dc704802ff5528fca/1622845541400-WG7BKFFGXKSXHO86B6NV/GabrieleCanuFeelms_DJI_0554.jpg FINALE CLIMBING VACATION - Day 6: Climbing Day #4 We’ll once again start with breakfast, and this will be our last full climbing day of the trip.

daily 0.75 2021-11-18 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fd5704dc704802ff5528fca/1621702687120-ZYL3L529R9Z7I539UEIT/11CLtr0133.jpg SICILY CLIMBING VACATION - Climbing Whether you climb 5.4 or 5.14, the crags of San Vito Lo Capo have you covered. With everything from caves and tufas to pockets, steeps and slabs, and even moderate multi-pitch adventures, Sicily has it all. The crags around San Vito are stacked with routes from 5.7 to 5.13 in a variety of styles, and if you feel comfortable climbing 5.9-5.10 in the gym, Sicily is going to be perfect for you. Unlike the cracks of Yosemite or the tiny holds of Smith Rock, limestone tends to be a little - well, either more fun, more straightforward, or both. Many of the crags are recently developed too, meaning new bolts, no slippery polished holds, and tons to explore, all with magnificent backdrops and short approaches. Each day we’ll head out in small groups of up to five climbers, and we’ll make sure you’re paired with climbers and climbs that match your ability so you don’t have to worry about being held back or pushed too far. Like all of our sport climbing vacations, this trip is perfect for climbers of any skill level, and is a great opportunity to learn new skills, push your limits, work on your lead game, or just enjoy the ride. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fd5704dc704802ff5528fca/1620510022480-PU5XEM5F5AFOTXTKJU34/AdobeStock_82466771.jpeg SICILY CLIMBING VACATION - Food & Accommodations Even within the rich tradition of Italian food, Sicilian cuisine in particular holds a special place. With fresh produce, seafood, olive oil, wine and pasta in abundance, we promise you will not go hungry (or thirsty, for that matter). We like to try hard at the crag, but we also like to relax and we really love to eat, so we’ve hand-picked our favorite restaurants, bakeries and snacks to give you a taste of it all. We’ve also selected some incredible hotels right in the heart of Palermo and moments from the beach in San Vito, and we know you’re going to love them just as much as we do. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fd5704dc704802ff5528fca/1620581230675-76ZZVGDHV8NFTSZE3GFF/AdobeStock_233831669.jpeg SICILY CLIMBING VACATION - Day 1: Benvenuti in Sicilia! You get yourself to the Falcone Borsellino Airport in Palermo and we’ll arrange your transport to the hip and centrally-located Hotel Principe di Lampedusa, where you’ll be just a short walk from the famous Cappella Palatina and Cattedrale di Palermo. You’ll be on your own for the evening to explore the historic city center, where your only job will be to find something tasty for dinner and to try to get some sleep. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fd5704dc704802ff5528fca/1621707947285-NNBWC4M7ZNXBL473B9XD/Scenic+San+Vito+Lo+Capo SICILY CLIMBING VACATION - Day 2: To San Vito Lo Capo We’ll start the day with breakfast at the hotel before we load up for the hour and a half drive to San Vito Lo Capo and our home for the week, the gorgeous Hotel Artemide. You’ll have the afternoon to relax, settle in, and explore a little before we head out to dinner for our first taste of some of the dishes that make the region famous. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fd5704dc704802ff5528fca/1621702641271-5VSBMFSG8F52ZFHUIH08/11CLtr0130.jpg SICILY CLIMBING VACATION - Day 3: Climbing Day #1 We’ll start the day right with some proper Italian coffees, a breakfast buffet, and packing a lunch full of fresh goodies before we head out in small groups for the day to climb. Most of our favorite cliffs are less than a half hour’s drive from town, and we’ll spend the day on the rock before getting back to town for a little downtime before dinner and drinks. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fd5704dc704802ff5528fca/1621702767806-3AK60MBXZGG8LKJHREWW/11CLtr0124cp.jpg SICILY CLIMBING VACATION - Day 4: Climbing Day #2 We’ll repeat our routine with breakfast and treats from the bakery before heading out to climb again. Depending on the group’s skill levels and goals, we’ll head to multiple crags before converging again for dinner. Destinations include the classic Never Sleeping Wall, the unbelievable cave of the Grotta del Cavallo, and the stacked Torre Isulidda at Fakirella Beach. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fd5704dc704802ff5528fca/1620580442120-OBMP5EBBA17J8CLVDQRS/AdobeStock_297193360.jpeg SICILY CLIMBING VACATION - Day 5: Rest Day or Climbing Day #3 For folks who are keen on another day of climbing we’ll head out again. For those who want to give their arms a break, they’ll be free to explore town, lay on the beach (no rest day is complete without gelato), or possibly take a field trip to the nearby ancient Phoenician village of Erice. Luckily whatever you choose, you’re in luck because the climbing, lounging and sightseeing are all top notch. We’re also going to give you the night to yourself with no group dinner just to make sure you don’t get sick of us. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fd5704dc704802ff5528fca/1621703036797-IRQ8N9IGCEIQ48RKP4RY/_DSC0729.jpg SICILY CLIMBING VACATION - Day 6: Climbing Day #4 We’ll once again start with breakfast and this will be our last full climbing day of the trip.

climb 5.4 or 5.12, the crags of Cayman Brac have you covered. With everything from jugs and tufas to pockets, steeps and slabs, the island has it all. Because of the unique formation of the stone on The Brac however, the bulk of the routes here are 5.9 and up. There are a good handful of quality routes for beginners, but feeling comfortable climbing 5.9-5.10 in the gym will make this trip a lot more fun. Don’t be intimidated by the grades though. Unlike the cracks of Yosemite or the tiny holds of Smith Rock, limestone tends to be a little - well, either more fun, more straightforward, or both. Most of the crags are recently developed too, meaning new bolts, no slippery polished holds, and tons to explore, all with magnificent backdrops, warm weather, and short approaches. Each day we’ll head out in small groups of up to five climbers, and we’ll make sure you’re paired with climbers and climbs that match your ability so you don’t have to worry about being held back or pushed too far. Like all of our sport climbing retreats, this trip is a great opportunity to learn new skills, push your limits, work on your lead game, or just enjoy the ride. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fd5704dc704802ff5528fca/1621816474617-D408XHR0P9JE8JWE4I2Y/unsplash-image-7G9guQUCmuY.jpg CAYMAN BRAC CLIMBING RETREAT - Food & Accommodations Island life is almost a philosophy sometimes, and it doesn’t feel like an exaggeration to say Cayman Brac might be one of the most laid-back places you’ll ever go. We love climbing, but we sure do like to relax and we hope you do too, because we are talking about a vacation to the tropics here. With that in mind, we’ll be staying at the stunning Cayman Brac Beach Resort, our own little paradise for the week. Everything you need will be right at your fingertips, including spacious rooms with your choice of one or two beds, a restaurant and bar, swimming pool, and private, beautiful white sand beach. We’ll make sure to head out to sample some of the island’s specialties for dinners, but we’ll start each day with breakfast at the hotel and pack plenty of snacks for lunch. If swimming, lounging, a cocktail and a sea breeze don’t sound good to you, this one might not be quite your speed, but for the rest of us it’s pretty hard to beat. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fd5704dc704802ff5528fca/1621804686468-YM1NKW2T4YIL4BFBDCEJ/AdobeStock_165084820.jpeg CAYMAN BRAC CLIMBING RETREAT - Logistics The Cayman Islands are located south of Cuba in the western Caribbean, and are part of the British West Indies. There are three Cayman Islands, with Grand Cayman, an international beach and dive destination, being the biggest and most developed. Cayman Brac isn’t the smallest (Little Cayman takes that title), but is considerably quieter, with no real cities and relatively few visitors except for climbers, divers, bird watchers and fishermen. No visas are required for visiting the islands, and Grand Cayman’s Owen Roberts International Airport in the capitol of Georgetown can be reached with a nonstop flight from a number of American cities, including Houston, New York, Atlanta and Miami. From there a twenty-minute flight with Cayman Airways will get you to Cayman Brac, and we’ll pick you up there and provide transportation for everything while you’re on the island, including getting you back to the airport to head home. Depending on where you’re coming from, if getting to Cayman Brac in a day seems tricky or you’d like to break up the trip with a night on Grand Cayman, you’ll find it a lovely place to visit. It is possible, however, to get there in a day, even from the Western US. Getting home is easy as you’ll be starting on Eastern Standard Time, and with an early flight you’ll have no problem getting just about anywhere in a day. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fd5704dc704802ff5528fca/1621793177676-DLYXD848V3A6VZCXJINS/AdobeStock_232647124.jpeg CAYMAN BRAC CLIMBING RETREAT - Day 1: Welcome to The Brac You get yourself to the Sir Captain Charles Kirkconnell International Airport on Cayman Brac and we’ll meet you there and get you to the hotel, where your only job will be to relax a little, go for a swim, and settle in before we kick things off with dinner. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fd5704dc704802ff5528fca/1621793320839-ZJ8UCHEG70Z1D96FI3QY/Screen+Shot+2021-05-23+at+10.22.18+AM.png CAYMAN BRAC CLIMBING RETREAT - Day 2: Climbing Day #1 We’ll start the day with breakfast and some ocean views before we load up and head out to climb. Thanks to the island’s size, all of our destinations are just a few minutes’ drive away, and most have approaches that are nice and short as well. Depending on the group’s skill levels and goals, we may visit multiple different crags before converging again for dinner. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fd5704dc704802ff5528fca/1621792353832-P4DY8PCHGILTGCP4H7J4/Screen+Shot+2021-05-23+at+10.22.27+AM.png CAYMAN BRAC CLIMBING RETREAT - Day 3: Climbing Day #2 We’ll once again start the day right with some breakfast before we head out in small groups for the day to climb. We’ll spend the day on the rock and come back to town in time for a little downtime before heading out to sample some local Caribbean cuisine at one of the island’s best restaurants. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fd5704dc704802ff5528fca/1621802417006-KK4D9WR62VEN2FGAYCIQ/AdobeStock_104860624_Preview.jpeg CAYMAN BRAC CLIMBING RETREAT - Day 4: Rest Day Because you’ll want to give your arms a break, you’ll be free to take a day to explore on your own, lay on the beach, or go check out the Cayman Islands’ main attraction with some diving or snorkeling. The staff at the resort are experts at arranging whatever excursions you’re after, and have all the gear and instruction you’ll need to make it happen (plus we think the local sea turtles will be excited to see you). We’re also going to give you the night to yourself with no group dinners planned, just to make sure you don’t get tired of our company. Dinner will be available at the resort, or you can go for a short walk to another local spot. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fd5704dc704802ff5528fca/1621802477798-AY0ZALLHCL18ORZ0E1B9/Screen+Shot+2021-05-23+at+10.21.23+AM.png CAYMAN BRAC CLIMBING RETREAT - Day 5: Climbing Day #3 Hopefully after a day of relaxation you’ll be ready for another day of climbing in paradise, so we’ll once again have some breakfast and head out for the day. Depending on the weather and conditions, we may even be able to climb on some of the island’s famous sea cliffs, rappelling in to climb back up from the water. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fd5704dc704802ff5528fca/1621802960806-OE64YEGU5KVJX8NTADMK/unsplash-image-a632w6Ldr5c.jpg CAYMAN BRAC CLIMBING RETREAT - Day 6: Climbing Day #4 We’ll once again start with breakfast and this will be our last climbing day of the trip. It will also be our last dinner, and Chef Robert assures us he’ll make it a special one. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fd5704dc704802ff5528fca/1621803138707-TI72GJIWMGQOBWD4P9WB/AdobeStock_415897707_Preview.jpeg CAYMAN BRAC CLIMBING RETREAT - Day 7: Heading Home Unfortunately all good things must come to an end, and you’ll have to go home. A short ride from the resort to the airport should have you on a morning flight out and on your way.

most fun and accessible stone around, El Potrero Chico is an international destination for climbers of all abilities. It is uniquely popular, however, due to its unmatched concentration of moderate single and multi-pitch sport climbs. Whether you climb 5.4 or 5.14, Potrero has something for you, but for the 5.6 to 5.10 climber it’s truly paradise. Famous for its technical faces on sculpted grey limestone, the style of climbing is generally more delicate than powerful, and doesn’t demand that climbers be pull-up machines. But don’t worry - if steep is what you’re after there also plenty of caves and tufas as well. What’s more, most of the approaches are short, and don’t involve any driving at all as we can simply walk into the canyon from our hotel. Each day we’ll head out in small groups, with two climbers and a guide for multi-pitches, and up to five climbers for single-pitch outings. We’ll make sure everyone gets to climb a mix of single and multi-pitch days, and we’ll ensure you’re paired with climbers that match your ability so you don’t have to worry about being held back or pushed too far. Like all of our climbing vacations, this trip is a perfect opportunity to come alone or with a friend or partner, and to learn new skills, push your limits, work on your lead or multi-pitch game, or just enjoy the ride. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fd5704dc704802ff5528fca/1623467282945-ESG6VBY4KSG47HAWDM7B/unsplash-image-NMBeU9Par_Q.jpg El PORTRERO CHICO CLIMBING VACATION - Food & Accommodations If you’ve never visited Mexico before, this is a perfect introduction, and if you don’t already love Mexico and Mexican food, you will after this trip. For those who have spent some time down south already, you’ll probably already agree that Mexico is the best. It’s hard to explain exactly, but the combination of a rich cultural history, deep traditions and relaxed, friendly people always keep us coming back. Either way, we promise you’ll fall in love with La Posada, our home for the week. The property comes complete with gorgeous grounds, breathtaking views, an outdoor pool, a fantastic bar and restaurant, and friendly, bilingual staff. Your lodging options include private rooms with one or two beds and private bathrooms, as well as super-stylish “glamping” luxury tents complete with electricity, beds, linens and furnishings. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fd5704dc704802ff5528fca/1623512939727-733MVB5LWFLLDT66XF8R/unsplash-image-bABgwhNfqsI.jpg El PORTRERO CHICO CLIMBING VACATION - Getting There El Potrero Chico is located in the state of Nuevo León, and close to Monterrey, the largest city in northern Mexico. All you’ll need to do is get to Monterrey International Airport, which is modern, busy, and easy to reach. Our team will pick you up there, and you’ll quickly leave the city’s bustle behind with a forty minute drive to La Posada. El Potrero Chico is located just outside the small town of Hidalgo, and is quiet, gorgeous, and a world away from any security issues that may concern travelers in other parts of the country. The US-Mexico border has also remained open throughout the pandemic, and there are no issues whatsoever with traveling to Mexico at present. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fd5704dc704802ff5528fca/1623853654930-VBOS1GX01HLPXDN442OI/sav.cummins.edit.mileski-08732.jpg El PORTRERO CHICO CLIMBING VACATION - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fd5704dc704802ff5528fca/1623450297173-A3M3NPV9L1EGQPLZ31MD/unsplash-image-_3acbgAZanI.jpg El PORTRERO CHICO CLIMBING VACATION - Day 1: ¡Bienvenidos a México! You get yourself to Monterrey and our team will meet you there. A short drive will get you to La Posada, located at the mouth of the Potrero canyon and walking distance to all of the climbing, as well as the lovely little town of Hidalgo. You’ll be on your own to settle in, meet your guides and the rest of the group as they arrive, enjoy the scenery, have some dinner, and get some sleep. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fd5704dc704802ff5528fca/1623865753699-ODUB32JVNIHFMOBPRB6V/sav.cummins.edit.market-06523.jpg El PORTRERO CHICO CLIMBING VACATION - Day 2: Climbing Day #1 We’ll start the day with breakfast at La Posada before we head for a short walk into the canyon to climb. We’ll begin by tuning up (or introducing) some skills for multi-pitch climbing, and will spend the rest of the day on the rock before enjoying a special parrillada, or local barbecue, for dinner. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fd5704dc704802ff5528fca/1623853810296-O167SC9G428PACPE671A/sav.cummins.edit.outrage-02209.jpg El PORTRERO CHICO CLIMBING VACATION - Day 3: Climbing Day #2 We’ll start the day right with another breakfast before we head out to climb. We’ll split into small groups, with some teams heading to single-pitch climbs and some to enjoy multi-pitch adventures. Depending on our timing, we may also be able to visit the colorful Tuesday market in Hidalgo. No matter what the day holds, we’re sure you’re going to be ready for another cerveza and a delicious dinner. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fd5704dc704802ff5528fca/1623853998307-RQ0G9FXVJTK9985OB468/sav.cummins.edit.surfbowl-07014.jpg El PORTRERO CHICO CLIMBING VACATION - Day 4: Rest Day & Yoga Climbing for five days in a row can be pretty harsh, so like it or not, you’re probably going to need a day off. Don’t worry though - guides will be ready if you want to keep climbing (don’t say we didn’t warn you), and our very own Katie Paulson will be offering outdoor yoga classes to help you stretch out and recover. Massage services are also available, and there are tons of opportunities to explore town, hike one of the nearby peaks, or just take some downtime by the pool. We’re also going to give you the night off with no group dinner just so you don’t get tired of us. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fd5704dc704802ff5528fca/1623854133573-5I9NJEHPSFEYZQWPCYVE/sav.cummins.edit.market-05965.jpg El PORTRERO CHICO CLIMBING VACATION - Day 5: Climbing Day #3 Feeling refreshed from a day off, we’ll once again head out to climb. For folks interested in working on their skills, you’ll have all the time you need to learn and practice with our IFMGA and AMGA trained and certified guides. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fd5704dc704802ff5528fca/1623854430850-GM4PCYYDG6FSKKCRA3F3/sav.cummins.edit.wonderwall-06702.jpg El PORTRERO CHICO CLIMBING VACATION - Day 6: Climbing Day #4 We’ll once again start with breakfast, and this will be our last climbing day of the trip. We’ll have another opportunity to visit the market in Hidalgo, and since it will also be our last night at La Posada, we’ll make it a special one with a celebratory farewell dinner of another grand parrillada Norteña. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fd5704dc704802ff5528fca/1623467489684-Z9437YJRTZBFWID129FW/unsplash-image--81lVsfM4gQ.jpg El PORTRERO CHICO CLIMBING VACATION - Day 7: Heading Home Unfortunately all good things must come to an end, and you’ll have to go home. We’ll get you to the airport in Monterrey, and from there you’ll be on your way.

the most fun and accessible stone around, El Potrero Chico is an international destination for climbers of all abilities. It is uniquely popular, however, due to its unmatched concentration of moderate single and multi-pitch sport climbs. Whether you climb 5.4 or 5.14, Potrero has something for you, but for the 5.6 to 5.10 climber it’s truly paradise. Famous for its technical faces on sculpted grey limestone, the style of climbing is generally more delicate than powerful, and doesn’t demand that climbers be pull-up machines. But don’t worry - if steep is what you’re after there also plenty of caves and tufas as well. What’s more, most of the approaches are short, and don’t involve any driving at all as we can simply walk into the canyon from our hotel. Each day we’ll head out in small groups, with two climbers and a guide for multi-pitches, and up to five climbers for single-pitch outings. We’ll make sure everyone gets to climb a mix of single and multi-pitch days, and we’ll ensure you’re paired with climbers that match your ability so you don’t have to worry about being held back or pushed too far. Like all of our climbing vacations, this trip is a perfect opportunity to come alone or with a friend or partner, and to learn new skills, push your limits, work on your lead or multi-pitch game, or just enjoy the ride. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fd5704dc704802ff5528fca/1623467282945-ESG6VBY4KSG47HAWDM7B/unsplash-image-NMBeU9Par_Q.jpg VERMONT INTRO TO ICE CLIMBING CLINIC - Food & Accommodations If you’ve never visited Mexico before, this is a perfect introduction, and if you don’t already love Mexico and Mexican food, you will after this trip. For those who have spent some time down south already, you’ll probably already agree that Mexico is the best. It’s hard to explain exactly, but the combination of a rich cultural history, deep traditions and relaxed, friendly people always keep us coming back. Either way, we promise you’ll fall in love with La Posada, our home for the week. The property comes complete with gorgeous grounds, breathtaking views, an outdoor pool, a fantastic bar and restaurant, and friendly, bilingual staff. Your lodging options include private rooms with one or two beds and private bathrooms, as well as super-stylish “glamping” luxury tents complete with electricity, beds, linens and furnishings. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fd5704dc704802ff5528fca/1623512939727-733MVB5LWFLLDT66XF8R/unsplash-image-bABgwhNfqsI.jpg VERMONT INTRO TO ICE CLIMBING CLINIC - Getting There El Potrero Chico is located in the state of Nuevo León, and close to Monterrey, the largest city in northern Mexico. All you’ll need to do is get to Monterrey International Airport, which is modern, busy, and easy to reach. Our team will pick you up there, and you’ll quickly leave the city’s bustle behind with a forty minute drive to La Posada. El Potrero Chico is located just outside the small town of Hidalgo, and is quiet, gorgeous, and a world away from any security issues that may concern travelers in other parts of the country. The US-Mexico border has also remained open throughout the pandemic, and there are no issues whatsoever with traveling to Mexico at present. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fd5704dc704802ff5528fca/1623853654930-VBOS1GX01HLPXDN442OI/sav.cummins.edit.mileski-08732.jpg VERMONT INTRO TO ICE CLIMBING CLINIC - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fd5704dc704802ff5528fca/1623450297173-A3M3NPV9L1EGQPLZ31MD/unsplash-image-_3acbgAZanI.jpg VERMONT INTRO TO ICE CLIMBING CLINIC - Day 1: ¡Bienvenidos a México! You get yourself to Monterrey and our team will meet you there. A short drive will get you to La Posada, located at the mouth of the Potrero canyon and walking distance to all of the climbing, as well as the lovely little town of Hidalgo. You’ll be on your own to settle in, meet your guides and the rest of the group as they arrive, enjoy the scenery, have some dinner, and get some sleep. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fd5704dc704802ff5528fca/1623865753699-ODUB32JVNIHFMOBPRB6V/sav.cummins.edit.market-06523.jpg VERMONT INTRO TO ICE CLIMBING CLINIC - Day 2: Climbing Day #1 We’ll start the day with breakfast at La Posada before we head for a short walk into the canyon to climb. We’ll begin by tuning up (or introducing) some skills for multi-pitch climbing, and will spend the rest of the day on the rock before enjoying a special parrillada, or local barbecue, for dinner. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fd5704dc704802ff5528fca/1623853810296-O167SC9G428PACPE671A/sav.cummins.edit.outrage-02209.jpg VERMONT INTRO TO ICE CLIMBING CLINIC - Day 3: Climbing Day #2 We’ll start the day right with another breakfast before we head out to climb. We’ll split into small groups, with some teams heading to single-pitch climbs and some to enjoy multi-pitch adventures. Depending on our timing, we may also be able to visit the colorful Tuesday market in Hidalgo. No matter what the day holds, we’re sure you’re going to be ready for another cerveza and a delicious dinner. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fd5704dc704802ff5528fca/1623853998307-RQ0G9FXVJTK9985OB468/sav.cummins.edit.surfbowl-07014.jpg VERMONT INTRO TO ICE CLIMBING CLINIC - Day 4: Rest Day & Yoga Climbing for five days in a row can be pretty harsh, so like it or not, you’re probably going to need a day off. Don’t worry though - guides will be ready if you want to keep climbing (don’t say we didn’t warn you), and our very own Katie Paulson will be offering outdoor yoga classes to help you stretch out and recover. Massage services are also available, and there are tons of opportunities to explore town, hike one of the nearby peaks, or just take some downtime by the pool. We’re also going to give you the night off with no group dinner just so you don’t get tired of us. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fd5704dc704802ff5528fca/1623854133573-5I9NJEHPSFEYZQWPCYVE/sav.cummins.edit.market-05965.jpg VERMONT INTRO TO ICE CLIMBING CLINIC - Day 5: Climbing Day #3 Feeling refreshed from a day off, we’ll once again head out to climb. For folks interested in working on their skills, you’ll have all the time you need to learn and practice with our IFMGA and AMGA trained and certified guides. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fd5704dc704802ff5528fca/1623854430850-GM4PCYYDG6FSKKCRA3F3/sav.cummins.edit.wonderwall-06702.jpg VERMONT INTRO TO ICE CLIMBING CLINIC - Day 6: Climbing Day #4 We’ll once again start with breakfast, and this will be our last climbing day of the trip. We’ll have another opportunity to visit the market in Hidalgo, and since it will also be our last night at La Posada, we’ll make it a special one with a celebratory farewell dinner of another grand parrillada Norteña. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fd5704dc704802ff5528fca/1623467489684-Z9437YJRTZBFWID129FW/unsplash-image--81lVsfM4gQ.jpg VERMONT INTRO TO ICE CLIMBING CLINIC - Day 7: Heading Home Unfortunately all good things must come to an end, and you’ll have to go home. We’ll get you to the airport in Monterrey, and from there you’ll be on your way.

CAMP - The Climbing Whether you climb 5.4 or 5.14, the walls of the Dolomites have you covered. The climbs we’ll be on are all pure rock routes, but with an inarguably alpine feel. We’ll move between skills sessions and climbing routes of all sizes with the goal of making you an efficient, competent and confident leader on multi-pitch rock. With small groups, short approaches, light packs and rock shoes, we can concentrate on the freedom of moving on stone. From ridges to roofs, faces, and slabs, from casual to severe, and from one pitch to forty (not kidding!), the Dolomites have it all. If you feel comfortable climbing 5.8-5.10 in the gym, this trip is going to be perfect for you. Unlike the cracks of Yosemite or the tiny holds of Smith Rock, Dolomite limestone tends to be a little - well, either more fun, more straightforward, or both Each day we’ll head out in small groups and we’ll make sure you’re paired with climbers and climbs that match your ability so you don’t have to worry about being held back or pushed too far. Our expert guides will help you through the training and skills you need both on the ground and on route. Our low ratios are what make this program unique, and will pair up to three climbers per guide for single-pitch and instructional sessions, while multi-pitch days will strictly be two climbers per guide to maximize your learning and fun and give you the best experience of these incredible mountains. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fd5704dc704802ff5528fca/a26e4f8f-d361-4c86-9572-655bca7293f8/15BP1301.jpg DOLOMITES ALPINE ROCK CAMP - Food & Accommodations We’ll start our trip in the enchanting city of Venice - yes, that Venice! With the nearest major airport to the Dolomites, Venice is the perfect jumping off point for our trip, and we’ll be staying at the lovely Hotel Moresco, just a short walk from all of the famous sights of the city. We of course recommend a few days to explore on either end of our trip if you’ve never visited before, but after a night in Venice we’ll head to Cortina d’Ampezzo (or more commonly just Cortina). A picturesque Italian mountain town in the heart of the Dolomites, Cortina is the perfect hub for exploring mountains. We’ll enjoy the comfort of the Hotel Ambra Cortina, and with a range of fantastic bakeries and restaurants from pizzerias to wine bars and Michelin-starred fine dining, eating and drinking in Cortina is as much fun as it sounds. In addition to our lovely hotels, we’ll also spend a night in one of our favorite mountain huts, the Rifugio Scoiattoli. Scoiattolo means squirrel, and the hut was built by a local mountain guide and member of the famous Scoiattoli Cortina climbing club. Sitting beneath the iconic Cinque Torri, these days the refuge is more like an alpine hotel than anything else, complete with showers, comfy beds and delicious food. It also has the most incredible views on the planet, and is about a ten minute walk from the climbs. We like to try hard, but we also like to relax and live well, so we’ve hand-picked our favorite hotels, restaurants, bakeries and snacks to give you a taste of it all. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fd5704dc704802ff5528fca/4fdde6c1-67fa-4c8c-8c20-e9733083adab/unsplash-image-ftTsK4QinMw.jpg DOLOMITES ALPINE ROCK CAMP - Day 1: Benvenuti a Venezia! You get yourself to the Marco Polo Airport in Venice and you’re almost there. A fixed-rate taxi ride (€40) will take you to the Piazzale Roma, which is as far as you can get by car in vehicle-free Venice. From there you’ll be less than a five minute walk from the gorgeous Hotel Moresco, itself just a short walk from the famous sights of this magical city. You’ll be on your own for the evening to explore, and your only job will be to find something tasty for dinner and to try to get some sleep. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fd5704dc704802ff5528fca/1636436233246-XZY1203GJXMJSNR6PXHY/GettyImages-957641420.jpg DOLOMITES ALPINE ROCK CAMP - Day 2: Off to Cortina We’ll officially start the trip with breakfast at the hotel before we load up for the two and a half hour drive to Cortina and our home for the week, the gorgeous Hotel Ambra Cortina. You’ll have the afternoon to relax, settle in and explore a little before we head out to a welcome dinner for our first taste of some of the dishes that make the region famous. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fd5704dc704802ff5528fca/19d2a3d3-1600-442f-bbb3-8ebc31f758ee/12CLtr0043.jpg DOLOMITES ALPINE ROCK CAMP - Day 3: Trad Climbing Workshop We’ll start the day right with some proper Italian coffees and a breakfast buffet before we head out for the day to climb. We’ll spend the morning going through a brief lead and belay test before moving on to a trad climbing workshop for the rest of the day. We’ll start on the ground and will cover the basics of building a solid rack and selecting the right gear, and we'll practice gear placements for lead protection and anchors. We'll also talk about how to put those into action on leads, and we'll practice building anchors for top-rope and multi-pitch climbing using a variety of gear and equalization methods. After a day on the rock we’ll head back and let you loose for the evening. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fd5704dc704802ff5528fca/dd350a76-86db-4f03-8b54-364cd5b8633f/12CLtr0055.jpg DOLOMITES ALPINE ROCK CAMP - Day 4: Multipitch Workshop We’ll repeat our routine with breakfast before heading out to climb again. We’ll spend the morning near the ground working on a variety of skills and workshopping anchors and transitions for both up and down. We’ll practice moving groups of two and three in and out of anchors, working on belay techniques, efficient multipitch ascending and descending, and tips for fast and clean rope and station management. We’ll also dive into safe and effective tactics for multipitch rappels and how to get off routes quickly and securely, and we’ll once again finish up on the rock before coming back to town. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fd5704dc704802ff5528fca/1a012afa-60d5-4db1-a23d-c696e5d4c4e4/10CLal0047.jpg DOLOMITES ALPINE ROCK CAMP - Day 5: Multipitch Climbing: Instructor-Led Climbing Day After another great breakfast, we’ll head out in small teams of two climbers and a guide to climb. This day is meant to be pure fun as we’ll be sure to tick a collection of Dolomites classics, but it’s also a chance for you to put all the skills you’ve learned into action on a world-class alpine rock climb. Our focus will be on putting everything we’ve learned into practice and getting some air under our feet. With our small teams, we can literally climb anything we want, from the Tre Cime di Lavaredo to the Tofana di Rozes, and you’ll have a world-class guide to ask questions and help you along the way. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fd5704dc704802ff5528fca/52ec1ee4-35ef-4cdc-b6c7-17b11ee9a623/12CLsp0008.jpg DOLOMITES ALPINE ROCK CAMP - Day 6: Student-Led Climbing This will be the culmination of everything you’ve learned so far, with a focus on getting you into the lead. We’ll once again start with breakfast before driving up to the Cinque Torri to climb for the day. The towers of the Cinque Torri (Five Towers, though there are actually more like nine) offer a huge array of routes from one or two pitches to five or six, making them the perfect place to practice leading, multi-pitch climbing and technical descents. We’ll help you through from planning and prep to execution before spending the night at the gorgeous Rifugio Scoiattoli, where a warm bed a three-course meal will be waiting for you. And don’t worry - if you’re not feeling ready to get out front, you can always just take the day to work on skills or go big again with your guide. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fd5704dc704802ff5528fca/d2d155ad-58b9-4a99-979f-28747e7e811f/10BPhk0233.jpg DOLOMITES ALPINE ROCK CAMP - Day 7: Out of the Mountains and Back to Venice After one last breakfast with the mountains, we’ll hike the twenty minutes back down to the vans and drive back to Venice. We’ll spend another night at the Hotel Moresco, and go out for one last farewell dinner. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fd5704dc704802ff5528fca/da387ec6-26e9-4ba3-b0c9-5bea4dde501c/10BPhk0153.jpg DOLOMITES ALPINE ROCK CAMP - Day 8: Heading Home Unfortunately all good things must come to an end, and you’ll have to go home. A short journey from hotel to airport should have you on your way. Of course we recommend staying a few days to relax, but that one’s up to you. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fd5704dc704802ff5528fca/67909f44-a238-47fe-811b-7ce323b6a31e/10BPlf0324.jpg

climber from the most extreme to the most accessible, there can be no doubt that the Alps, the very namesake of the alpine world, are one of the great homes of mountain climbing. If you haven’t been, it’s hard to really appreciate the scale, diversity, and quality of the climbing and mountain culture the Alps have to offer, and nowhere is that truer than Chamonix. There just isn’t anywhere else where you can step out of the bakery and ride a lift ninety-three hundred vertical feet into some of the coolest mountains on Earth to start your climb. At the heart of Chamonix’s climbing is a stunning lineup of towers and spires home to some of the most iconic and adored routes in the world. All of this makes it the absolute perfect place to learn the craft of mountaineering. This course is designed to take complete beginners and teach them the skills to be competent climbers in the mountains. Each day we’ll make sure you’re paired with climbers and climbs that match your ability so you don’t have to worry about being held back or pushed too far. Our expert guides are the best in the business and are all internationally certified with the IFMGA badge, “the PhD of mountain climbing.” The best in the business, they’ll help you through the training and skills you need both on the ground and on route. Our low ratios are also what make this program unique. We’ll pair up to three climbers per guide for instructional sessions, while days on technical routes will strictly be two climbers per guide to maximize your learning and fun, all while giving you the best experience of these incredible mountains. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fd5704dc704802ff5528fca/147b08f5-8f89-482b-bb14-92dc76f2047a/-d3a91255e8717e9b6eaf-p.jpg CHAMONIX ALPINISM 101 - Food & Accommodations One of the best parts of climbing in the Alps - especially for American climbers used to long slogs, heavy packs and sleeping in tents - is that you get to combine a climbing trip with a European vacation. Sure the mountains are the best in the world, but you’re also in France, which means the food, hotels and mountain huts are superb as well. In addition to being located in one of the great mountain ranges of the world, Chamonix is also one of the planet’s great mountain towns. With everything from nightlife to wine bars, fondue joints and fine dining, Chamonix has it all. It also hosts some of the most gorgeous chalets and hotels in the Alps, and we’ll be based out of the hip and centrally-located Hotel Pointe Isabelle. Just a few minutes walk from everything in town, it’s a perfect home base any adventure. In addition to our lovely hotel, we’ll also spend a few nights in some of our favorite mountain huts. In Switzerland we’ll stay at the Cabane du Trient, and in France we’ll stay at the Refuge Albert Premier just outside Chamonix. Both are are gorgeous alpine refuges that come complete with comfy beds, delicious food, and incredible views. We like to try hard, but we also like to relax and live well, so we’ve hand-picked our favorite hotels, restaurants, bakeries and snacks to give you a taste of it all. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fd5704dc704802ff5528fca/0cb46ee1-ddf5-457e-aa56-0cad25aa10f4/15LF0165.jpg CHAMONIX ALPINISM 101 - Day 1: Welcome to the Alps! You get yourself to the airport in Geneva and we’ll arrange your transport to Chamonix. The drive is beautiful and just a little over an hour as you leave the green hills of Switzerland behind for the craggy peaks of the Chamonix Valley. We don’t like to make anybody do too much after a long day of travel, so you’ll be on your own to explore and shake off the jetlag, and your only job will be to find something tasty for dinner and to try to get some sleep. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fd5704dc704802ff5528fca/dd2f7a1b-9f43-4034-ac81-3f2343638cc9/15CL0418.jpg CHAMONIX ALPINISM 101 - Day 2: School of Rock We’ll officially start the trip with breakfast at the hotel before getting our gear together and heading out for the day. We’ll start our training with the basics of rock climbing on one of the many fantastic crags around Chamonix. We’ll focus on moving in boots over moderate terrain, as well as practicing with the rope systems we’ll be using in the mountains. We’ll work on techniques for climbing, belaying, and rappelling, and for folks with rock experience already, you’ll have the opportunity to test your skills at the crag as well as to learn a few new tricks and see how you do climbing in mountain boots instead of rock shoes. After a full day of climbing, we’ll head back to town. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fd5704dc704802ff5528fca/25fb9d41-e0d6-4bf6-a562-e1dd1d642f3f/15BP0981.jpg CHAMONIX ALPINISM 101 - Day 3: Into the Mountains After another breakfast, we’ll make sure everyone has everything they need and go over the basics of equipment and packing before loading up for a scenic drive around to the Swiss side of the Mont Blanc range. From there we’ll ride the La Breya lift up into the hills and hike the roughly 4 hours to the Cabane du Trient. The hike follows a gorgeous trail for about 5 miles and gains 3000’ before reaching the hut at 10,400’. The hut comes equipped with beds in shared rooms, and serves simple but hearty dinners and breakfasts. They also have beer, wine, soft drinks, and snacks, and will provide sandwiches and other lunch foods on request. Once we get moved into our rooms, we’ll spend a few hours on the glacier covering the basics of ice axe and crampon techniques before coming back in for dinner. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fd5704dc704802ff5528fca/be28d532-7bbd-4e7b-a1bc-15448adbfc93/13BPhk0458.jpg CHAMONIX ALPINISM 101 - Day 4: Snow School We’ll start the day with breakfast in the hut before heading out onto the Trient Glacier, our classroom for the day. We’ll pick up where we left off covering a full range of snow climbing skills including snow anchors and belays before moving on to glacier travel and crevasse rescue. We’ll show you how to manage a rope for moving up and down glaciers, and we’ll spend the afternoon working on crevasse rescue, covering essential techniques for getting a fallen climber out of a bind. After that we’ll head back to the hut for a relaxing drink on the porch so that we can wake up early for our first climb, an ascent of the classic Aiguille du Tour. This day will tax your brain as you’ll be exposed to a variety of new skills, but should give your legs a chance to rest before the climb. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fd5704dc704802ff5528fca/3938b921-1de2-4b64-9f58-36987378682b/13BPhk0453.jpg CHAMONIX ALPINISM 101 - Day 5: Aiguille du Tour Climb This will be the culmination of everything you’ve learned so far as we’ll wake up before the dawn, down some breakfast, and set out for the summit. We’ll likely be moving on the glacier with headlamps for a few hours before the sun comes up, but once at the summit block a few steep snow steps and an exhilarating rock scramble await us. From the 11,614’ summit we’ll take in the 360° views of incredible alpine scenery, then reverse our tracks back down. Instead of returning to the Trient Hut though, we’ll cross back into France for a night at the Refuge Albert Premier. If things go well we should arrive around mid-afternoon, which will give us just enough time for a nap before dinner. We’ll once again finish the day with a hot meal, and you’ll likely sleep like a stone, satisfied with the day’s efforts and your alpine climb. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fd5704dc704802ff5528fca/7c51bda7-c76f-4af8-a0d5-5cf0624b0bb2/13BPhk0297.jpg CHAMONIX ALPINISM 101 - Day 6: Back to Chamonix After another round of breakfast, we’ll hike down towards Chamonix. The trail is a gorgeous one, and drops almost 3,000’ in about 3.5 miles as we descend past the Glacier du Tour to the Col de Baume. We’ll take the lifts down into the village of Le Tour, where we’ll hop on the bus for a short ride back to the hotel. You’ll have the afternoon free to shower, nap, rest and enjoy yourself. We’re also going to give you the rest of the day off from group activities just to make sure you don’t get sick of us. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fd5704dc704802ff5528fca/b68e167b-d76f-4aa5-8968-c894a3d4ca90/CW_Cham_w_Jorge_June_16+%2834+of+88%29.jpg CHAMONIX ALPINISM 101 - Day 7: Putting It All Together We’ll spend our last day using all of our new skills to have some fun. We’ll break into small teams once again to tackle some of the classic climbs that make Chamonix famous. What exactly we climb will depend on weather and conditions, but we’ll be aiming for some of the most iconic climbs of the range, like the Arête des Cosmiques, or a traverse of the Aiguilles d’Entrèves, Pointe Lachenal, or Aiguilles Marbrées. Most of these routes start off by grabbing something delicious at the bakery before boarding the lift for a mind-blowing 9,300’ ride up to the top of the Aiguille du Midi, where we’ll step directly into the heart of the mountains. After climbing all day, we’ll catch the lift back down so we can clean up for a farewell dinner party at a local favorite, the Bighorn Bistro.

come to an end, and if you’re heading home we’ll have a transfer ready to get you back to Geneva and on your way.

mountains are a stunning lineup of towers and spires home to some of the most iconic and adored routes in the world. The Mont Blanc Massif is literally a climber's playground. With a huge amount of stone, the area has something for everybody. The heart of the range is composed of impeccable golden granite, and with an incredible network of trains, lifts, huts and trails, it's all easy to get to as well. Chamonix granite comes in all shapes and sizes too, yielding routes ranging from moderate ridges and rock climbs to massive faces and endless splitter cracks. Many of these are reached via short glacier crossings, bringing a unique set of alpine skills to bear. Below the glaciers, Chamonix also offers a host of options with no snow at all. Those include sunny bolted and traditionally-protected routes, epic ridge traverses and scrambles, and single and multi-pitch climbs on a variety of rock types including gneiss, granite and limestone. We’ll move between skills sessions and climbing routes of all sizes with the goal of making you an efficient, competent and confident alpine rock climber. Each day we’ll make sure you’re paired with climbers and climbs that match your ability so you don’t have to worry about being held back or pushed too far. Our expert guides are all internationally certified with the IFMGA badge, often known a the PhD of mountain climbing. The best in the business, they’ll help you through the training and skills you need both on the ground and on route. Our low ratios are also what make this program unique. The entire week we'll be in groups of two climbers per guide to maximize your learning and fun and give you the best experience of these incredible mountains. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fd5704dc704802ff5528fca/147b08f5-8f89-482b-bb14-92dc76f2047a/-d3a91255e8717e9b6eaf-p.jpg CHAMONIX ALPINE ROCK WEEK - Food & Accommodations One of the best parts of climbing in the Alps, especially for American climbers used to long slogs, heavy packs and sleeping in tents, is that you get to combine a climbing trip with a European vacation. Sure the mountains are the best in the world, but you’re also in France, which means the food, hotels and mountain huts are superb as well. In addition to being located in one of the great mountain ranges of the world, Chamonix is also one of the planet’s great mountain towns. With everything from nightlife to wine bars, fondue joints and fine dining, Chamonix has it all. It also hosts some of the most gorgeous chalets and hotels in the Alps, and we’ll be based out of the hip and centrally-located Hotel Pointe Isabelle. Just a few minutes walk from everything in town, it’s a perfect home base for any adventure In addition to our lovely hotel, we’ll also spend a night in one of our favorite mountain huts. Situated on the south side of the Vallée Blanche peering into the Italian side of the range, the Torino Hut comes complete with comfy beds, delicious food, and incredible views. We like to try hard, but we also like to relax and live well, so we’ve hand-picked our favorite hotels, restaurants, bakeries and snacks to give you a taste of it all. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fd5704dc704802ff5528fca/0cb46ee1-ddf5-457e-aa56-0cad25aa10f4/15LF0165.jpg CHAMONIX ALPINE ROCK WEEK - Day 1: Welcome to the Alps! You get yourself to the airport in Geneva and we’ll arrange your transport to Chamonix. The drive is a little over an hour as you leave the green hills of Switzerland behind for the craggy peaks of the Chamonix Valley. We don’t like to make anybody do too much after a long day of travel, so you’ll be on your own to explore and shake off the jetlag, and your only job will be to find something tasty for dinner and to try to get some sleep. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fd5704dc704802ff5528fca/dd2f7a1b-9f43-4034-ac81-3f2343638cc9/15CL0418.jpg CHAMONIX ALPINE ROCK WEEK - Day 2: School of Rock We’ll officially start the trip with breakfast at the hotel before getting our gear together and heading out for the day. We’ll start our training with rock climbing on one of the many fantastic crags around Chamonix, most likely at the top of the Brévent lift. For those interested in leading throughout the week we'll conduct some brief belay tests, and we’ll practice with the rope systems we’ll be using in the mountains. We’ll work on techniques for multi-pitch climbing, belaying, and rappelling, and for folks with multi-pitch experience experience already, you’ll have the opportunity to learn a few new tricks and just enjoy some climbing. After a full day, we’ll head back to town for a welcome dinner and another night at the Pointe Isabelle. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fd5704dc704802ff5528fca/66537318-96a7-4aa4-a8d1-3b50955b43cf/13BPhk0470.jpg CHAMONIX ALPINE ROCK WEEK - Day 3: Snow School After another breakfast, we’ll make sure everyone has everything they need and go over the basics of equipment and packing before heading up the famous Aiguille du Midi cable car. The lift will take us up 9300' to the top to the Valée Blanche, which we'll cross with another lift to the Italian side of the glacier. From there we’ll drop our overnight gear off at the Torino Hut and head out onto the snow. We'll spend the day covering the basics of snow climbing with crampons and ice axes before moving on to glacier travel. We’ll show you how to manage a rope for moving up and down glaciers, and we’ll spend the afternoon working on crevasse rescue, covering essential techniques for getting a fallen climber out of a bind. After that we’ll head back for a night at the hut, which comes equipped with beds in shared rooms, and serves simple but hearty dinners and breakfasts. They also have beer, wine, soft drinks, and snacks, and will provide sandwiches and other lunch foods on request. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fd5704dc704802ff5528fca/02fbf733-72f6-4b14-ab17-7f74c62d477e/14CLtr0120.jpg CHAMONIX ALPINE ROCK WEEK - Day 4: Climbing Day #1 This will be the culmination of everything you’ve learned so far as we’ll start the day with breakfast in the hut before heading out in small teams to climb for the day. There are hundreds of classic climbs just a short walk away, and all of them will use our new glacier travel skills to get us to some perfect rock. What exactly we climb will depend on weather and conditions, but whatever we choose, we’ll be aiming for some of the most iconic climbs of the range, like a traverse of the Aiguilles d’Entrèves, the East Face of the Pyramide du Tacul, or routes on the Tour Ronde, Pointe Adolphe Rey, Pointe Lachenal, or even the Dent du Geant or Grand Capucin. At of the day we'll get back to the hut and ride the lift back down to Chamonix. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fd5704dc704802ff5528fca/084d6ed4-6b71-4390-a45a-bb3d9fa7fe93/14CLtr0109.jpg CHAMONIX ALPINE ROCK WEEK - Day 5: Climbing Day #2 Once again, we'll start with breakfast at the hotel before heading out to climb. With only one other climber and a guide, you'll be free to focus on routes that suit your style and ability, and that can be anything from another big granite route to a fun traverse or a bolted multi-pitch on the other side of the valley. These days are meant to be fun, so the world is your oyster. For those interested in working on skills, you'll have one of the absolute best guides in the business at your disposal, and we dare you not to have a good time. We’ll finish the day in Chamonix where you'll be free to explore town for the evening. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fd5704dc704802ff5528fca/5dc78aa2-e555-4cf0-b391-93e89fc06f1b/CW+Uncategorized+Europe+2014-9.jpg CHAMONIX ALPINE ROCK WEEK - Day 6: Climbing Day #3 You'll once again have the day climb whatever you want. Some of our favorites include the Voie Contamine on the Pointe Lachenal, the Rebuffat on the south face of the Aiguille du Midi (pictured above), the Arête des Papillons and the Voie Normale on the Aiguille du Peigne, Nabot Leon on the Blatiere, a traverse of the Aiguilles Crochues and the Frison-Roche on the Brevent. That route, for example, involves riding a lift up into the sunshine and hiking downhill for about 15 minutes before climbing a 7-pitch sport route back up to the lift station where you can grab a beer before riding back down to town. If you haven't gotten the idea yet, you'll just have to trust us on that whole Chamonix is a playground thing. Whatever you do, you'll once again have the evening to yourself. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fd5704dc704802ff5528fca/da1aca91-6ff5-4713-9a67-d4e6b0e02314/05CL-al0220d.jpg CHAMONIX ALPINE ROCK WEEK - Day 7: Climbing Day #4 This will be your last day to climb in paradise, so we’ll break into small teams once again to tackle one more of the climbs that make Chamonix famous. Whether you decide to go big and crank hard or get something delicious at the bakery (or both) is up to you. Either way, we'll finish up with a farewell dinner party at a local favorite, the Bighorn Bistro.

must come to an end, and if you’re heading home we’ll have a transfer ready to get you back to Geneva and on your way.

Whether you climb 5.4 or 5.14, the crags of Leonidio offer some of the most fun and accessible sport climbing in the Mediterranean. Tufas, pockets, steeps, slabs - they’re all there, and they’re all good. Vacation climbing really doesn’t get any better. What’s more, most of the approaches are short, and the variety of settings from the hills to the seaside never seem to get old. This trip is perfect for climbers of any skill level, and is a great place to push your limits, work on your lead game, or just enjoy the ride. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fd5704dc704802ff5528fca/1607913455138-NHMPMBD84J8RWM4Y8A6A/CW+Leonidio+Greece+Climbing++%2885+of+86%29.jpg KALYMNOS CLIMBING VACATION - Food & Accommodations We’ve hand-picked our favorite hotels, restaurants, bakeries and snacks, and we know you’re going to love them. There are few things that beat strolling along an ancient stone path, olive and orange groves all around you, with the sea shining in the distance and the glow of the cliffs above. Add in the spinach pie in your backpack and the memory of last night’s calamari plus the promise of more magical days and dinners to come, and you’ll start to get the picture. We really cannot say enough about just how magical this place is, but trust us - it really is incredible. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fd5704dc704802ff5528fca/1608247606777-501F8JPQDB9HQZN8BS6Y/Leonidio+Greece+Rock+Climbing+%2826+of+114%29.jpg KALYMNOS CLIMBING VACATION - Day 2: Off to Leonidio We’ll start the day with breakfast at the hotel, getting the whole team together and getting to know each other before we load up for the three hour drive to Leonidio. If the weather is nice, we’ll stop along the way for a short walk through the ruins of one of the largest ancient agoras, or markets, in Greece before arriving at the stunning Hotel Hatzipanayiotis, our home base for the week. You’ll have the afternoon to relax and explore before we head to the beach for dinner on the water. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fd5704dc704802ff5528fca/1609359914090-Q0R6NM0TNB2U0684Z6LU/Extra+Greece+%28104+of+114%29.jpg KALYMNOS CLIMBING VACATION - Day 1: Welcome to Greece You get yourself to the Athens International Airport and we’ll meet you there. We’ll pick you up and drive you to the Coco-Mat hotel where you’ll be free to explore the enchanting ancient city, marvel at the Acropolis, and dip your finger into the world of Greek food on your own at one of the Plaka neighborhood’s many delightful restaurants. If you want to spend a few days exploring Athens beforehand, just let us know and we can help set you up with a great itinerary to explore on your own, or a local guide if you’d prefer. (We know the Coco-Mat is a funny name btw, but it’s really hip, modern and nice, and has the perfect location - promise.) https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fd5704dc704802ff5528fca/1607966997108-WV2SPY3ACUVBZFT2YEVY/Leonidio+Greece+Rock+Climbing++%2820+of+86%29.jpg KALYMNOS CLIMBING VACATION - Day 3: Climbing Day #1 We’ll again start with a breakfast buffet and packing a lunch full of freshly-baked goodies before we head out for the day to climb. Most of our favorite cliffs are less than a half hour’s drive from town, with some even walking distance. We’ll spend the day on the rock and come back to town in time for a little downtime before dinner and drinks at the local taverna, home of the absolute best souvlaki on the planet (if you ask us, at least). https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5fd5704dc704802ff5528fca/1609204593453-QND3Z6276DHWLPG0F3UN/Leonidio+Greece+Rock+Climbing++%289+of+86%29.jpg KALYMNOS CLIMBING VACATION - Day 4: Climbing Day #2 We’ll repeat our routine with breakfast and gifts from the bakery before heading out to climb again.
