Berghaus supports solo trekker

Berghaus has given a helping hand to a long distance hill walker who hopes to achieve his life long ambition of making a solo trek across the Alps.

This long-dreamed project will take Grégoire Jacob across 6 countries and on the slopes of Europe’s most famous summits including Meije, Mont Blanc, Eiger, Jungfrau, Bernina, Marmolada, and Triglav.

Greg sees the crossing of the Alps as an ambitious and exciting challenge. In which he will trek over 2,200 kilometres.

The trek is due to finish on the 15 September after Greg has passed through France, Italy, Switzerland, Austria, and Slovenia

Greg is grateful for all the support he has received:

“My passion for the mountains, the training and planning I’ve gone through, and the support from my sponsors Berghaus, BlueDesert, CimAlp, and MBeng, allow me to turn my dream of Alpine crossing into reality.”
