We are taking Glocals women for an Introduction to Rock Climbing day on Saturday, July 11th. Space is limited to only 3 people. Your guides will be Certified Rock and Alpine Guides with many years of climbing experience. No previous climbing experience is needed. Our meeting point is in Chamonix at 9h30.

Cost for the day for Glocals is 275chf (discounted from 300euros).

We will teach you the basics of climbing rock, gear use, basic footwork and hand techniques, belaying and rappeling methods, safety systems, and how to enjoy this sport in the most enjoyable and safest way possible. You will see what it is like to climb intelligently and efficiently. No previous climbing experience necessary, but basic fitness is needed.

Intermediate & Advanced Rock Climbing Courses & Skills Instruction

Have you done some sport routes, gym climbing or followed some routes led by competent leaders? Do you lead 5b or 6b but cannot rescue a leader or second when injured on a multi-pitch route? Have you enjoyed climbing a few times but are aware you do not really know how to back-up systems, counter or tandem-rappel, create unique and safe anchors when bailing off a route? If you have been climbing but cannot answer these questions, our Intermediate & Advanced Rock Climbing Skills days are designed specifically for you as the next step:

Can You:
- Identify a leader’s ‘back-clip’ and correct it?
- Rappel and belay without a rappelling device (if dropped, for example)?
- Escape a belay when loaded with a fallen climber?
- Do a knot pass with two joined ropes when lowering a climber (remember the book/movie “Touching The Void”!)?
- Identify a pre-rigged anchor or belay station connected with a ‘death triangle’?
- Recognize an equalized 3-point anchor with improperly loaded protection points?
- Know how to safely unload and correct a jammed rappel?

The questions above were selected because every year they are the source of many accidents due to climbers’ inability to perform them. On our Intermediate Rock Courses you will learn to do all of these things plus much more. These one and two-day courses are designed specifically to enable climbers to improve their margin of safety and to explain, demonstrate and practice the skills necessary to climb safely, on sport routes or traditional big wall sends.

GuideSource will be offering these courses in June, July and August (and possibly later in the season).

One-day Course: Cost 275chf (reduced from 300€)
Two-day Course: Cost 500chf (reduced from 550€)

For information as to what course best suits you, dates, photos, testimonials, and reservations please write to us directly at:

Family Holidays July 19th-26th, 2009
The Alps are stunning and on our doorstep! Our exclusive guided hiking holidays are based out of La Source, a 5* eco-lodge on the edge of one of France’s largest Nature Reserves ( 45 min from Geneva). We offer the opportunity to get into the heart of the mountains and learn about the flora and fauna with our wonderful local guide, Aga. The hikes get more challenging throughout the week giving time to acclimatise. We visit canyons, world heritage sites, mountain lakes, summer farming hamlets, and spend 1 night in a refuge.

Our Family holidays are designed for families with children from 4 to 12 who love the outdoors. Single parent families are very welcome. We visit canyons, lakes, waterfalls, parks, playgrounds and farms. At the end of the week there is a big overnight hiking expedition accompanied by Zebulon our favourite donkey. There is one ‘kids day’ where parents are encouraged to go on their own adventure knowing their kids are in great hands. I am a trained teacher, ex-Outward Bound Instructor and mother. My kids are 6 and 8 years old.


E590 for adults E240 Kids from 4 to 12

All courses include:

1 weeks B&B accommodation in 5* eco-lodge

1 nights accommodation in mountain refuge

2 days with Zebulon the donkey

2-3 days with local professional Walking Mountain Guide
