Important notes

Decisions regarding the weather are entirely in the hands of the guides who are the greatest experts on the mountain.

In case of light rain or similar the tour will take place.

If the bad weather is such that there are no safe conditions (fortunately it rarely happens in summer), we propose alternative routes or changes of the date (even if this is not always possible).

In the event that it is not possible to avoid cancellation, unfortunately in some cases the services still apply penalties (generally not the Alpine refuges but some hotels in very tourist areas such as Mont Blanc do).

Therefore, in the event of unavoidable cancellation, the amount paid will be refunded, minus only any penalties applied by the services.


Please return the attached file completed for each participant, which serves as a guide for a better understanding of the group.
