Reaching the altitude of 4809 meters over the sea level it is considered to be the highest European peak. Exactly the same definition is often given to the Caucasus Mountain Elbrus (5642 m). That is caused by a non-uniform methodology when assigning the borders between Europe and Asia. The first successful ascent of Mont Blanc was made by the French Jacques Balmat and Michel Paccard on the 8th August 1786. The first woman who stood atop the Mont Blanc was Marie Paradis. She was a poor maidservant from Chamonix who reached the summit on the 14th July 1808 and did not countinue her mountaineering career afterwards. On the contraty, the second woman who ascended the Mont Blanc was a French pioneer of mountaineering Henriette d´Angeville. She did so 30 years later in 1838. Various ascent routes leading to the top of the mountain require a good physicall fitness. Reaching the top of the mountain is an unforgettable experience. Each successfuI ascent luires you to come back and try again, maybe this time just by using a different route.
The ascent usually lasts from 2 to 6 days depending on the requirements of the client and the agreement done with the mountain guide. The programm meets all the mountaineering needs and expectations of the client and can also include the acclimatization.
