Description
The granite of the Rébuffat route on the south face of the Aiguille du Midi is simply exceptional.
Above Chamonix, in the heart of the Mont-Blanc massif, it is an historic route that does not age, with major cracks, technical and varied pitches for a day in the mountains with one of the most beautiful scenery on the planet. Personally I am a fan!
The price of the outing is 360€ to divide by the number of climbers (maximum 2).
