Summer mountaineering
Whether you’re a beginner or a seasoned mountaineer, the guides at the Bureau des 2 Alpes will give you the opportunity to experience the great heights. They’ll guide you to the wild and the grandiose, to the summits and to yourself!
Mountaineering is also about approach walks, nights in refuges, starting out under the stars…
Depending on your experience, your knowledge and your wishes, we’ll be able to guide you and suggest an appropriate program.
For pleasure and safety… follow the guide!
Period of activity from June to September.
Registration directly at our reception desk or via our contact form.
