Fixe Gavarnie Dry Rope – 7.4mm – 60m (Half/Twin)

The Gavarnie is a rope with double standardisation, half and twin. It is durable, reliable, and versatile in alpine terrain. Its lightweight at just 38gr/m and allows climbers to move without hardly noticing any weight or friction. Its Fusion construction provides extra security on winding paths to overcome sharp rocks and ridges. It is recommended for technical climbs, where every gram counts, and is ideal for mountaineering, ice climbing and technical ski mountaineering.

This rope is named after The Cirque de Gavarnie which is part of the Monte Perdido massif. This cirque is flanked by a large rock wall with three imposing vertical gradients. The cirque is surrounded by several peaks standing over 3,000 meters, so climbing its walls requires an extraordinary level of skill and technique, with routes of up to 1,500 meters of change in altitude. Top climbers tackle its walls in the winter season, with ice climbing and mixed styles predominating.
