Gaillands Climbing Crag

A well-known and highly accessible outdoor climbing area located just south of Chamonix town. This natural rock climbing crag is popular for both beginners and intermediate climbers, offering numerous bolted sport climbing routes on limestone. Routes range from French grade F4 to F7b, featuring a variety of climbing styles from slabs to gentle overhangs, all set in a picturesque location near a small lake. It's an ideal spot for learning rock climbing techniques or practicing existing skills. No entry fee, but climbers must bring their own appropriate equipment (ropes, quickdraws, harness, helmet, climbing shoes).
