A wild and authentic mountain range, untouched by mechanical equipment and preserved by a national park, the Écrins are a mecca for mountain activities in all seasons, especially mountaineering.
With its prestigious high peaks – some exceeding 4,000 m in altitude (Barre des Écrins), others touching them (La Meije, Ailefroide, Pelvoux, etc.) –, its beautiful rock faces, and its glaciers, the Écrins massif is a popular destination for mountaineering. The massif benefits from milder weather than the northern Alps and offers a wide variety of routes and good quality rock.
Frédéric Jullien, mountain guide, offers a selection of forty routes, ranging from easy to very difficult, representative of current mountain conditions: glacial, entirely rocky, or mixed routes, whether unmissable, recent, or classic. This book is aimed at a wide range of climbers, who will find all the detailed and essential information, as well as images, to help them make their choice based on their level and desires.
