Ice
Climbing

Climb frozen waterfalls, often
with roadside access or ascend a classic ‘goulotte’ or gully in
the big mountains. More ice than you could ever dream of in
Scotland.
Valley bases
– take your pick.
La Grave-
an area near Grenoble in France. Many different venues are
available with ice from Scottish grade 2 to as steep as you like.
This could be combined with skiing to give your tired arms a rest.

Chamonix-
This Alpine capital offers opportunities for near roadside cascades,

field and the many high mountain couloirs and faces in the Valley
Blanche.

Val de Cogne-
The ice climbing venue! This valley is fantastic. Imagine sitting on
