THE EXPERIENCE

Experience the mountains through the rhythm of running. A starting point for discussing the terrain, pace and sense of exploration you are looking for, without a fixed performance target.

Run with the shape of the mountain. A private trail day explores pacing, climbing and descending on a route chosen for the runner you are today.

The session can balance flowing sections with technical practice and quieter moments to take in the landscape. Distance and height gain are agreed around your recent training, with the freedom to shorten or adapt the route when conditions call for it.

We had a fantastic time! Our guide was Guillaume and he was awesome. The whole trek was absolutely beautiful, and the views were amazing. While it can be a little scary, I felt pretty comfortable the whole way up! Guillaume provided many opportunities for breaks, views, and knew a lot about the area! It was a lot of fun, being able to speak to a local about the natural geography and Chamonix. Guillaume was super knowledgeable, fun to talk to, and was an excellent guide! I highly recommend this experience for anybody! It pushes you out your comfort zone but Guillaume is great at checking in and guiding you through every part! If you’re in the area, this is an absolute must do.

Highly recommend!!! We had the most amazing experience doing the Via Ferrata in Chamonix. Guillaume was a fantastic guide - he was kind, calm & professional and made our experience really fun too - we were completely able to put our trust in him! We would 100% book with Alpine Vertigo for more adventures next time we are in the Chamonix area.

Super expérience avec Vertigo à Chamonix ! Une via ferrata avec une vue magnifique sur le Mont-Blanc, dans une ambiance à la fois détendue et très sécurisante. L’encadrement m’a permis de profiter pleinement du parcours sans stress, tout en gardant le côté aventure et dépassement de soi. Un grand merci à Guillaume pour son accompagnement, sa bonne humeur et ses conseils tout au long de l’expérience ! Une expérience vraiment réussie qui m’a clairement donné envie de continuer et de découvrir d’autres via ferrata. Je recommande sans hésiter !
