Shades of granite…
Volume five in the Mont-Blanc Granite collection presents, the best rock climbs in the three basins overlooking Val Veny (I), from the area’s superb and historic ridges and big walls to recently (re)equipped cragging-style climbs. The wild and unspoilt Italian side of Mont Blanc is an irresistible magnet for climbers and mountaineers.
Volume five in the MONT-BLANC GRANITE collection describes the best routes on the Italian face of Mont Blanc, covering three unspoilt basins overlooking Val Veny.
These south-facing cirques are home to some of the world’s most famous granite walls ― Pillars of Brouillard, Pillars of Frêney and the Aiguille Noire de Peuterey – as well as many less well-known and recently (re)equipped spires and faces.
Excellent rock, major peaks, characterful climbing and an
incredible ambiance are just some of the reasons for visiting
these high-altitude cliffs and long, alpine ridges.
116 unforgettable rock climbs.
