The routes

A great 6-pitch outing that offers interesting cracks and some technical slabs on the beautiful red and grey granite wall about 150 meters high just below Dent du Géant.

Great climb up Gran Flambeau, past thin ice and lots of mixed terrain.

Cœur de Géant is a mixed climb on the NW Face of the Dent du Géant (4013m) in the Mont-Blanc massif, opened in 2014 by three Chamonix guides, Christopher Baud, Brice Bouillance and Jonathan Charlet. Baud describes the line as...

The normal route up the Dent du Géant is partially equipped with large ropes to aid the ascent and over the years it has become one of the great classics in the Mont Blanc range. Often crowded, never technically difficult...

Digital Crack is a unique climb in a unique setting, located on the huge granite gendarme above the famous Arête des Cosmiques. The monolith, with its typical Mont Blanc orange granite, currently hosts two bolted alpine sport climbs. The first...

Diretta al Borelli is a beautiful 650-meter line that reaches the Rifugio Borelli hut on Mont Noir de Peuterey. Dspite the bolts on the wall, this is by means a sport climb but an alpine route, where you must pay...

A spectacular, demanding and, as the name suggests, extremely airy route. Not to be underestimated at any costs: retreat is a difficult proposition, and almost impossible above the great roof. Psychologically more demanding than Voyage or Elixir, but highly rewarding....

El Chico" ascends the NNE Face of Pyramide Du Tacul and combines the routes "Pinelli-Sabbadini" and "Lenoir" to finish up the last pitch of the classic "Ottoz" route.

Electric Avenue is an interesting addition to the Gendarme des Cosmiques, only the third route on the granite monolith after Digital Crack (1990) and Arête Cosmiques (2013) and at 7b the easiest way to the summit. Note that if you climb...

This is the most direct line up the vertical wall, the exposure is total and the climbing, apart from a small section half-way up the aid pitch, is always pumpy and sustained. Not all belays have in-situ gear, but the...

An outstanding and spectacular route, more technical than at first appearance. The final pitches up the spur are truly genial! The crack pitch is not easy for those not used to crack climbing will find the crack pitch extremely difficult,...

After some fun initial pitches, the route connects the snowy gully of Full Love... for dry and ice with the exit of the 1942 Livacic - Martinetti route, of which there is little news about "winter garb" repeats, apart from...

Short but interesting outing up the South Face, forged ground-up with 10mm bolts over three days in June 2013.

Located at Nid Des Hirondelles, the first crag to be bolted in Valgrisenche, Fessura di Gianfri climbs the obvious diagonal crack that splits the huge overhang.

This winter outing, described by Griffith as "simply awesome" follows the upper half of a very rarely – if ever - repeated British route established in summer 1967 by James Fullalove and Brian Robertson with the use of difficult aid...

Géant dans L’âme on the north face of Dent du Géant really stands out due to the variety of climbing styles it offers. Over "only" 500 meters it has pretty much everything, including a very technical and physical section in...
