This guided tour tackles the great peaks and glaciers of the Bernese Oberland, the wildest and most remote region of the Western Alps.
The Jungfrau (4158m), Monch (4109m), Gross Fiescherhorn (4049m), Aletschhorn (4195m) and Finsteraarhorn (4274m) are among the 4000 meter peaks that can be climbed with our IFMGA guides in an adventurous hut-based trip after a warm-up day in the Arolla valley. Most Oberland tours start from the busy and very expensive Jungfraujoch train but there are lots of ways to access the area. Fiesch, Lotschental and Grimsel pass give long approaches with a real "expedition" feel! If you've already climbed in Arolla, Zermatt or Chamonix, the Oberland really feels on a bigger scale - every trip here is an "Odyssey"! Read our Blog to find out what a typical week involves.
The fitness requirements and technical experience required on this course are higher than Introductory Alpine climbing - expect long days and up to PD+ technical standard.
