Discover climbing on the Mont Blanc Massif and cross the magnificent Aiguilles Crochues, in the Aiguilles Rouges.

Do you dream of discovering high mountain climbing with a breathtaking view of Mont Blanc and the Aiguilles de Chamonix? Philippe will take you to the Aiguilles Crochues in the Aiguilles Rouges of the Mont Blanc massif for a discovery climbing session.

The Mont Blanc massif offers magnificent climbing on one of the most beautiful rocks in the world. The protogine, a red granite with large crystals seems to have been created for climbing. Beyond the quality of the rock, the climbing takes place in the high mountains above the glaciers, the approach is done with crampons on the snow and ice through breathtaking landscapes.

Chamonix Mont-Blanc is the capital of mountaineering. No other mountain site provides such easy and fast access to the high mountains. Just a few minutes by cable car is enough to take you to the heart of the massif.

This introductory course, which takes place in a superb setting, will enable you to learn the rope maneuvers and the gestures to adopt and to progress to go on to do other races later on.

Come and confront yourself to Mont Blanc for an unforgettable day of climbing!
