This will significantly increase the probability of success and safety of your climbing in Alps.
The Breithorn route begins from the Guide del Cervino mountain refuge - Testa Grigia.
The climbing route pf Pollux starts from the mountain refuge Testa Grigia, located at the last station of the cable car which is going up to the Monte Rosa massif from Italian resort Cervinia. Cervinia can be reached by car from Milan or Turin by the motorway Torino - Aosta (turn to Cervinia in Chatillon).
If the cable car is not running, start walking up by the dirt road in the direction of artificial lake Lago di Goillet, then along the road to the restaurant and then get to the hut via a gentle slope on the right - the route is well marked, in winter it is popular skiing route.
It is recommended to stay for overnight at the Guide del Cervino Mountain Hut.
Get to the glacier plateau Monte Rosa from the Refuge and follow the visible trail towards the Summit of Breithorn. Leave on your left side the rock pyramid of Klein Matterhorn. Trail crosses the glacier and begins to climb the left side of not steep Summit ridge of Breithorn. When walking the trail it is recommended to rope as there is a danger of multiple glacier crevasses. Climbing Breithorn from the Refugio Guides del Cervino hut takes no more than 2 hours as average. Descend the same route.
We wish you good luck and good weather!
Our Principles
AlexClimb Rule #1 - Safety First
From the very beginning of our activity, here nearly 16 years, the first Principle of work of School of mountaineering and rock-climbing of MCS AlexClimb is the Safety Priority. On the basis of this Principle all process of training is based, all programs and rounds are developed and carried out only within this main principle. We consider that at professional approach to development of programs, at personal discipline and correctly put motivation - occupations by mountaineering and rock-climbing are COMPLETELY safe. And from the return - all troubles and accidents in our sport come from nonprofessionalism, from ignorance or neglect by elementary standards of safety, from irrational motivation, from revaluation of own forces and opportunities. All these prerequisites we COMPLETELY EXCLUDE in our work - ours Rock-climbing, Ice climbing and Mountaineering are based on one Principle - the Safety Priority. In rock-climbing, mountaineering and ice climbing, the Priority of Safety of MCS AlexClimb-is your personal security and comfort irrespective of, than we are engaged - we train muscles and we work technology of the movement in the sports hall and on the rock climbing wall, we make the way through snowstorm to top or we relax on golden sand of the Caribbean beach after hot day of trainings on rocks. The Safety priority - the main credo of School of mountaineering and rock-climbing of MCS AlexClimb.
AlexClimb Rule #2 - Leave No Trace
Closely interacting with Nature, working with the active programs in mountains, woods, lakes and rivers, we perfectly understand the importance of carefull and respectfull bahavior towards the Nature, for its resources. From the very beginning of our outdoor-activity we adopted rules of Leave No Trace technique - the standard of behavior of the person accepted in all the civilized world in relation to environment and especially - to the wild nature. After all on the relation of people to the nature near which they exist, itself can draw dalekoidushchy conclusions on the relation of these people to... Where and as we didn't travel - we don't reserve any garbage, we try to reduce whenever possible our influence on environment to a minimum. We clear earlier zagryazyonny tourist parking of the left garbage, we take out and we take out to utilization places that to us other people left there. We consider that only thus, at personal individual consciousness of each citizen, each tourist, climber or autotraveller, we will be able to keep the nature surrounding us in its state, natural, suitable for life, - in it pledge of the healthy future for ourselves and our children.
