Ice Scenes: 2-Day Introductory Ice Climbing Course

Enjoy an extraordinary experience in the heart of Freissinières, a legendary valley and the historic birthplace of ice climbing. For a weekend, strap on your crampons and ice axes and let yourself be guided through a fascinating world of frozen columns and draperies.

Led by a high-mountain guide in a small group of 3 to 4 people, you’ll progress step by step: reviewing the basics of roped climbing, learning the techniques for climbing on ice, and then tackling your first pitches on beginner-friendly icefalls. The instruction is supportive and tailored to each person’s pace, helping you quickly build confidence and savor every vertical movement.

In the evening, retreat to the warmth of a mountain lodge nestled at the foot of the waterfalls, where you’ll enjoy local, organic, and seasonal cuisine. The next day, it’s time for another day on the ice to put your new skills into practice and push your limits. An intense and unforgettable adventure, perfect for discovering the magic of ice climbing.
