Client Feedback " Thanks again for a fantastic two weeks, Eric and I both really appreciated the lengths you went to, to make sure we could climb great stuff whatever the weather was doing and I suspect return trip(s) to Lecco and the Bregalia will be on the cards " MR - Sept '06

Days 2-6

Mon - Fri

Bregaglia Climber.  A varied and challenging week of alpine rock climbing, tailored to your ability and ambitions. Possible areas and routes could include:

The area is very compact, so it is quite possible to link routes and areas, moving between different huts during the week.

Food and Accommodation This week is run on a private guiding basis, so food and accommodation (for yourself and the guide) must be paid for as we go along.

Travel  The guide will have a vehicle available for transport during the week, but you are responsible for meeting the fuel costs incurred.

Fitness You need good levels of climbing fitness for this week, as typical days involve 4-10 hours technical rock climbing (see fitness level 2-3) so we advise you to prepare well in advance with regular training and climbing.  Pre acclimatisation for this week is not a necessity.

Experience  You should have either some previous alpine, or multipitch rock climbing experience and be capable of climbing French 5 rock (HS - VS) or harder to get the most from this week.

Equipment  All communal safety equipment (ropes etc) is provided by us.  You are expected to come equiped with personal clothing and climbing equipment, including rock boots. Local equipment hire (including boots) is also available.
