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.

This new edition of the incredibly successful 2016 Rockfax book covers everything you need – perfect granite rock routes, magnificent long ridges, intimidating north faces and some valley sport climbing for the ‘rest days’.

All the information has been checked and improved with many new crags and action photos. The crucial text information has been updated and amended to fit with the current glacier conditions maps and with excellent detailed descriptions. It also adds another 56 pages of routes to go at.
