🧗 The route

1 · La BalmeD

Head for the Écrins, a stone's throw from L'Argentière-la-Bessée, to take on La Balme! On this site facing the village of Vigneaux, you climb the sculpted walls overlooking the valley, beneath the south faces of the Tête d'Aval. It shares its start with Le Colombier, then La Balme breaks away to gain height: an exposed overhang, technical slabs and a drop that deepens with every pitch.
