Every year Chamonix plays hosts to the world’s best climbers for the international climbing festival. This event includes the French Championships and the World Cup events that see the best climbers facing off for the titles in categories of speed and difficulty. This is a great event for spectators – there is a big artificial wall that is under spotlights for the evening competitions and there are tents around the perimeter offering food, drinks and shopping.
