Climbing Breithorn from Italy to Switzerland - Unguided

Published 2023-08-06
I always wanted to cross over a mountain range, but I never thought I would do it carrying 20kg on my back...

After climbing to Capanna Margherita, the highest mountain hut in the Alps, we went to Breuil-Cervinia, from where we embarked on an ambitious mission the following day -
Hiking over the Alps from Cervinia to Zermatt, and in the process summiting the Breithorn.

West and Central Breithorn are considered the easiest routes in the Alps, if attempted from the Klein Matterhorn cable car that is.
Doing this mountain from the base was a completely different story.

    Awesome effort! Well done to you both! 9hrs in that terrain is tough + the heavy packs!

    Nice to see the mountains relatively quiet mid week. We climbed Breithorn just a few days before you on Sunday and the route and refugios were packed. Nicely shot.

    Hey guys, just want to say I love your videos, they're so fun to watch and a huge motivation! Best of luck in your future journeys!
  • Awesome videos on this channel! I worked 2 winter seasons in Champoluc which is a small italian ski town on the base of the Breithorn peaks on the Italian side. The chalet hotel I worked in was actually called the Hote Briethorn! I never mountain climbed like this but have a inch somewhere to one day do it!
