Roc de l'Aiguille

The South-West Ridge, known as Table de Roc, established multiple climbing paths that attracted early mountaineers to explore different ascending routes.

The mountain formations near Roc de l'Aiguille provide a training ground for alpine climbers developing their skills across varied terrain levels.
