All the famous summits of the western Alps, and some of the best alpine climbing in the world, is within easy reach of Leysin. So, this is the ideal programme if you have good alpine experience and are looking for technical summits and routes that demand a higher level of climbing skill i.e. AD and above (for easier summits see intro to alpinism, 4000 Oberland, or 4000 Valais / Pennine).
With a party of one or two with a guide it is possible to tailor each trip to the aspirations and experience of the group and be flexible to take advantage of the prevailing conditions and weather. When making an enquiry or booking let us know your experience and what you want to achieve.
