Since December 2019, mountaineering has been recognized as an intangible heritage by UNESCO. This fascinating sport attracts more and more enthusiasts, whether they are beginners or experienced. To practice climbing and mountaineering safely, it is essential to choose the right equipment. At Alpinstore, we offer you a wide range of climbing equipment, from shoes to ropes, to meet all your needs.
The choice of equipment depends on several factors: your level, the type of climbing practiced (sport, long routes, mountaineering) and the weather conditions. For beginners, it is advisable to turn to versatile and easy-to-use equipment. Climbing shoes, for example, should provide good support while being comfortable to avoid blisters during the first outings.
Also think about safety: a good helmet is essential to protect your head from falling rocks or other accidents. Harnesses should be chosen carefully to ensure optimal support during climbs. Remember that every element is important in verticality!
To guarantee you quality and performance, Alpinstore collaborates with the best brands in the sector such as La Sportiva, Petzl, and Black Diamond. These brands are recognized for their constant innovation and their commitment to the safety of climbers.

The necessary equipment varies according to the chosen practice: if you opt for via ferrata or technical mountaineering, make sure you have an appropriate ice axe and well-fitted crampons before your climb. Likewise, a charged headlamp can be crucial during night hikes.
