Fancy a bit of R & R from the daily chore of trudging up snow slopes with the consistency of sugar or dodging collapsing seracs in the late afternoon sun - this is a new edition of the ever popular Chamonix Valley Cragging guide (published July 2015), describing all the sport climbing venues in the area.

A guide for all outdoor activities in the Chamonix valley including walking, trail running, rock climbing, mountain biking via ferrata and more! This guide book covers everything you may possibly want to do on an active holiday to Chamonix in the summer months! Detailed descriptions of climbing routes, walking adventures, road and mountain biking excursions and even via ferrata routes of various levels.

Chamonix is the most famous climbing area in Europe. Nowhere else has as much quality rock, spectacular peaks and varied mountaineering history. For most climbers, a trip to Chamonix is an integral part of their climbing and mountaineering career. When there you want to try everything; perfect granite rock routes, magnificent long ridges, intimidating north faces and then also have some valley sport climbing for the ‘rest days’. Or maybe you just want to tick Mont Blanc.

Featuring tourist information and footpaths including GR routes as well as contours and sensible shading to help define ridges and valleys. The walker, mountaineer and traveller option.
