Stage escalade grandes voies - Compagnie des Guides de Chamonix

Facing the Mont Blanc massif, the Aiguilles Rouges massif is the ideal destination for big-pitch climbing, with numerous routes perfectly suited to perfecting your skills on multi-pitch equipped routes.

This climbing course has been specifically designed to introduce the techniques of multi-pitch routes. Each day, our program explores new sites, ensuring a varied and stimulating experience while enabling the teens to push their limits and create lasting memories. Emphasis is placed on the sense of belonging to a climbing team, which requires communication and coordination. The climbers are encouraged to co-create the week’s program by selecting routes from reading the topo.

Enrollment requires certain prerequisites to ensure optimal skill development and safety standards: teens must be autonomous in top-rope climbing, have experience with lead climbing including belay techniques, and be at least 11 years old. Registration is exclusively open for the four days of the course. For more flexible registration options or for beginner sessions, please check our climbing lessons offerings in Chamonix or Argentière.

Teaching methods implemented
- Ground-based workshops followed by climbing exercises to master belaying techniques

- Route and crag selection based on the technical level and experience of the teens
