We now offer several treks that include the ascent of a glaciated peak. The Chamonix Zermatt Glacier trek involves trekking on glaciers. For these treks you do not need previous experience of walking in crampons and using an ice-axe. The Glacier trek includes a training day at the start. The other treks only require that you wear crampons for the ascent. You just need to be a reasonably fit hill-walker.
