Safety information

The White Valley is a high mountain route over glacial terrain dotted with crevasses, seracs and snow bridges of varying strength. This type of route requires a solid knowledge of the mountain environment or, failing that, the supervision of an experienced guide.

For your own safety, it’s essential to have the right equipment: an avalanche transceiver (ARVA), a shovel, a probe, a harness, crampons (particularly useful for the ridge)… And above all, never go off on your own!
