Description
Several moderate length multi pitch adventures exist on the walls of Monte Chetif. Numerous of which take you to the summit. The environment is sublime, right above Courmayuer & below Monte Bianco (Mont Blanc). There is also some single pitch climbing that can be done on Month Chetif.
Getting There
The parking for both the multi-pitch & single pitch is near the restaurant, "Ristorante Pre' De Pascal" that can be reached by car during the summer (find it on google maps). This is a nice place enjoy a beer after your climb, and watch seracs fall off Monte Bianco.
To reach the multi-pitch climbing follow the track that heads up the ski slope opposite the Rifugio. It will take you to the left and out onto a grassy ledge that overlooks Courmayeur.
The single pitch areas can be reached by following the road up above the rifugio (SW) once you've parked. Take a turn left up to the top of a couple of chairlifts, skirt a wall on the right and traverse. This trail accesses numerous single pitch sectors which can be identified by plaques at the base of the routes.
