Au-delà des ombres is a beautiful 12 pitch outing, never extreme, which climbs an interesting mix of ice walls and snow fields. From the top of Happy Together the route traverses right (at times mixed M4/5) to reach the wide...

Cascade Chantriaux is the longest ice fall on the sector opposite Tete de Gramusat. Although somewhat discontinuous, the second pitch climbs a splendid free-standing drip. Unfortunately it rarely forms completely, and the upper section is often not in condition as...

Splendid drip located opposite Les Viollins. Generally climbed in 4 pitches, first up a wide varied sheet, then a beautiful free-standing drip and finally up an easier and less exposed streak. Every now and then another parallel drip forms on...

Short but intense gully. In dry conditions the route is difficult to protect. At times the rock quality is poor. Grandiose setting, total isolation.

This is the first icefall you come across upon entering the Freissinières valley and it is also an ideal introduction to the area. This mid-length route is 5 pitches long and climbs moderate angled ice (max 70°/75°) before a short...

Together with Au-delà des ombres this is the longest outing on the entire face. The route follows a interesting series of walls and free-standing drips. This beautiful vertical journey is never excessively demanding and usually climbs plenty of ice. The...

Gramusat Direct is a beautiful and logical line, a true classic. Unlike its name suggest, the seven exciting pitches weave their way though the wall in search of the easiest way up. Three bolts on the second pitch protect...

Happy together is the streak located in a sort of gully on the extreme lefthand side of the Tete de Gramusat. It shares the same start as Ice Pocalypse, then breaks off right when this divides into two.

Pleasant ice fall in beautiful setting. Cross the river via a fixed rope, then climb the steep wall to reach a splendid section of cauliflower ice which makes this route unique. The crux pitch can be avoided by climbing to...

The hardest pure ice route up the wall. The second pitch of "Over The Top" takes a direct line up the large 40m column, and this is then followed by a shorter drip.
