Originally from a village nestled in the heart of the Catalan Pyrenees, Hubert was surrounded by nature from an early age. It was as a teenager that he first discovered climbing and canyoning.

A passionate mountain sports enthusiast, he holds both his State Diploma (DE) as a Mountain Leader and his Canyon Instructor qualification.

Today, mountaineering is a core part of Hubert's life. He dedicates himself primarily to alpine routes — as varied as they are demanding — alongside his climbing partner Kilian Moni, also a member of the Cimalp team. A career soldier, Hubert also practises skiing and cycling/mountain biking.

  • Ascent of the North Face of the Ailefroide.
  • Traverse of the Catalan Pyrenees (Andorra to the Mediterranean Sea) by mountain bike.
  • North Face of Mont-Blanc du Tacul, solo, with Kilian Moni (couloir linkup).
  • Multiple technical ascents during summer 2021 with Kilian Moni.
  • Winter ascent of the North Face of Vignemale via mixed climbing.

Friendship, determination, pushing beyond one's limits.

Why do you feel you belong to the Cimalp family?

I share the same values as the brand when it comes to ecology and product durability. I also feel completely at home within the whole team!

Your best and worst memory in the mountains — and why?

Every summit reached and every route climbed in good company is an exceptional moment! On the flip side, I really struggle with setbacks in the mountains — that's just the passionate side of me…

What do the mountains inspire in you?

The mountains? One of the last spaces for expression and freedom!

What is your relationship with the environment and ecology?

Taking care of our planet is essential — as mountain sports practitioners, we are the first witnesses of climate change.
