Life Adventure Guiding offers an exhilarating opportunity to climb some of Switzerland’s best multi-pitch rock climbing routes
Whether you’re a beginner or an experienced climber, there is a route for you!
Have you ever been in the mountains and seen rock climbers high on a rock face? That’s multi-pitch rock climbing, and routes range from 2 to 25+ pitches (50-400+m!) with various degrees of difficulty.
Multi-pitch climbing involves ascending a route that includes one or more stops at belay stands, with a pitch from one belay stand to the next. Tim, your guide, will lead a pitch while the second climber lead-belays him. This process is repeated until the route is completed and you climb to the top. From there, the team will descend either by foot or rappelling (abseil) down to the ground.
At Life Adventure Guiding, we carefully select the best route for your team based on factors such as skill level, time available, weather conditions, and motivation level. Before and during the climb, our guide will provide instructions on specific tasks and movements, as well as words of encouragement. There will be time to capture incredible photo opportunities too.
Our two-day trip with an Alpine hut overnight is an excellent opportunity to combine rock climbing with the community around hut culture. Wake up to breathtaking Alpine sunrise views and enjoy the fantastic climbing routes right outside the huts.
Safety is our top priority, and we ensure that you have a safe and enjoyable climb. We provide all the necessary climbing equipment, including ropes, harnesses, helmets, quickdraws, and other technical gear. Climbing shoes are required but not provided. Our experienced guides will also provide instructions on how to properly use the equipment and ensure that it is well-maintained and in good condition.
All you need to bring is your enthusiasm and a willingness to challenge yourself. Book your adventure with us and experience the thrill of multi-pitch climbing in Switzerland!

Review:
“Tim took me up a multi-pitch climb up the side of the Stockhorn in Switzerland – and it was awesome!! I have a couple of years of experience in climbing single-pitch and a couple of multi-pitch routes, and to be able to go up with someone like Tim was very beneficial to me. I told him about my previous climbing experience, and he picked a route that challenged me but did not overwhelm me. The best part of my experience (if I had to choose just one thing) would be that Tim also taught me a lot of rope management skills and tips and tricks that help with efficiency while on the route. I had an absolute blast and am looking forward to the next adventure with Tim!” -Josh Cooper, Germany.
