Eiger

The Mit­tel­le­gi Ridge on the Eiger is a true alpine climb­ing clas­sic. Though not as famous as its more chal­leng­ing neigh­bor, the North Face, the Mit­tel­le­gi Ridge is a won­der­ful route on excel­lent rock. It ascends a tremen­dous­ly exposed ridge to the sum­mit of one of the most famous moun­tains in the Alps. This two-day climb makes use of a con­ve­nient­ly locat­ed hut perched in an amaz­ing­ly dra­mat­ic posi­tion, high along the ridge. Use of this hut allows us to climb rel­a­tive­ly unen­cum­bered. The Mit­tel­le­gi Hut is one of the finest huts found any­where. Immac­u­late­ly con­struct­ed and well main­tained, a night spent here is a real delight.
