WEEKEND ADVENTURE

Nath went with his buddy, Simon, to do multi-pitch climbing at Brévent in Chamonix. These two mountain enthusiasts share their session in pictures. If you are looking to prepare your own getaway, discover our tips for choosing suitable men's hiking clothing.

WHO ARE YOU?

	Nath, customer service manager and Skiman at Alpinstore Expert in mountaineering, climbing, ski touring “Sport takes up a lot of space in my life. I practice climbing, mountaineering, paragliding, trail running, and ski touring. A whole day without enjoying the nature around me? Don't even mention it, it's inconceivable.”


	Simon, Computer Engineer Sports practices: climbing, trail running, paragliding, skiing, ski touring...

HOW LONG?

It takes about 3 hours including the approach walk. The duration of the route is 2h30.

During these 3 hours, the two climbers enjoyed climbing the Frison Roche route at Brévent. This route has 6 pitches with a maximum difficulty of 6A and is south-southeast exposed, perfect for an easy and fun climbing session.

passionate adventures

WHAT IS THE GOAL OF THE CLIMBING OUTING?

No specific goal for this climbing session, the aim was to climb and have fun with friends, enjoy the view, and the nature without necessarily seeking difficulty.

ANY FUNNY ANECDOTE?

What's funny when you're climbing easy routes is finding yourself behind beginner teams, which gives you much more time to chat.
When we reached the top, there were quite a few chamois. Nature is beautiful.

WHAT GEAR DID YOU USE?

Nathanaël had climbing shoes Katana Velcro from La Sportiva and Simon had Vapor V climbing shoes from Scarpa. They used 2 double ropes of 50, 12 quickdraws, carabiners, reverso... everything necessary to set up a belay.

WHAT ARE YOUR FAVORITE BRANDS FOR CLIMBING?

For us, the leading brands for climbing are Scarpa and La Sportiva for climbing shoes, Mammut and Petzl for belaying equipment.

WHAT DO YOU LIKE MOST ABOUT THIS TYPE OF OUTING?

What I like most about this kind of session is breathing in the mountain air with friends, taking the time to chat, savoring the beauty of the landscape and the nature around us. The mountain has this magical side that allows you to discover a little more about yourself.
