The routes

Sentiero dei Troll resembles an iced gully and is a classic icefall in the famous Valnontey valley.

Val Ferret is located close to Courmayeur and offers two mid-grade icefalls which can be reached easily and are, above all, situated in an amazing backdrop. The climbs are located at the foot of Mont Blanc, directly in front of...

Jottnar is a tricky, not obvious line. A blank canvas of corners and grooves leading back up towards the top of the Cosmiques Arete": four pitches with difficulties up to Scottish grade VIII,8. The 60m fourth pitch leads right onto...

Beatuiful, logical climb up Gran Flambeau; modern style with some delicate moves.

New icefall which formed in winter 2009/10 thanks to the significant amount of rain which did not fall in previous seasons. The difficulty refers to the first ascent and may change considerably with more or less ice.

Climb the drip for circa 30m to where it changes angle. Belay in a niche to the left. Continue for a further 30m to reach the narrowest section of the icefall, where a belay is located with peg and bolt.

Short-lived and varied icefall which rarely comes into condition. La valse à trois manches is the most obvious of the three drips and is characterised by a mixed section to exit behind the curtain.

A little ice and mixed climbing gem, clearly visibile from the Skyway cable car. The couloir is located below Torrione di Entrèves, between Aiguille de la Brenva and the Toula glacier.

Superb and varied ice climb in a great winter ambience with views onto Mont Blanc.

Ephemeral mixed modern climb uo the east face of Aiguille de la Brenva.

Miss No is a difficult modern mixed climb established onsight April 2017 up the NE Face of La Vierge du Flambeau. Despite its easy access from the Torino hut, in the past this mountain strangely never attracted much attention.

Nice sustained drip which forms to the right of the Mission Impossibile cave
