World Climbing Series - Chamonix - France 2026
Chamonix has been synonymous with climbing longer than almost anywhere on earth, and the World Climbing Series round here carries that weight — a competition wall set beneath the Mont Blanc massif, with the mountains that started it all standing over the venue. This gallery follows the 2026 event from warm-up and isolation through qualification and into the finals: route reading in the last quiet minutes, the commitment at the crux, falls and tops, and the crowd noise that fills the valley when a climber clips the chains.
