Aiguille du Belvédère, Mountain summit in Aiguilles Rouges range, France

The Aiguille du Belvédère rises to 2,965 meters, marking the highest elevation point within the Aiguilles Rouges mountain range near Chamonix.

The south ridge climbing route on Aiguille du Belvédère has provided mountaineers with a challenging 200-meter ascent since its first documented climbs.

The mountain serves as a key training ground for alpinists preparing for more technical climbs in the Mont Blanc massif throughout the climbing season.

Climbers access the mountain via the Flégère cable car, followed by a trek to Lac Blanc before ascending rocky paths to reach the Col des Dards.

The final approach includes a technical 10-meter chimney rated at 3b, requiring specific climbing techniques to navigate through the narrow rock formation.
