Originally from a village nestled in the heart of the Catalan Pyrenees, Hubert has been in close contact with nature from an early age. It was during his teenage years that he discovered climbing and canyoning.

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

Today, mountaineering is an integral part of Hubert's life, and he dedicates himself primarily to completing alpine routes — as challenging as they are varied — alongside his rope partner Kilian Moni, also a member of the Cimalp team. A career military man, Hubert also practises skiing and cycling/mountain biking.

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.
