There are many high mountainguides based in the Chamonix - Mont Blanc area.
Whether you want to climb Mont Blanc, ski guiding, climb difficult ice or rock, or ski or surf on the magnificent glaciers, a high mountain guide can add enormously to the safety, success and pleasure of your trip.
Mountain Guides are not only guides but enthusiastic teachers as well, who can teach you to operate independently in the mountains, whether it be learning basic climbing, off-piste skiing and ski-mountaineering skills, or coaching you to an advanced level.
Chamonix: Safety is very important for a High Mountain Guide
All mountain guides are members of the UIAGM.
