Alps
1 Day
Jun, Jul, Aug, Sep
The Cosmiques Ridge is a beautiful mixed route and the perfect introduction to Alpine mixed climbing onto an excellent rock.
It’s technically not very difficult (AD, PD and PD+). Much of the ridge can be climbed moving together.
The route starts from Abri Simond hut which is next to the Cosmiques refuge. We will reach the starting point by taking the cable car in Chamonix up to Aiguille du Midi.
The surroundings are really beautiful. We will be in the heart of the Mont Blanc massif, above la Vallée Blanche.
We can do it in one day if there are not too many people on the ridge as the others might slow us down.
It’s a beautiful traverse which I highly recommend.
Please contact me if you wish to be guided there. I will bring you up Arête des Cosmiques with much pleasure !
