ABOUT US

The Saas-Fee Ice Climbing Association

Over the past 25 years, ice climbing has become an established part of life in the Saas Valley, both as a sport and as an event.

The association, which has around 140 members, aims to share its passion for ice climbing and, in cooperation with various partners, create a platform for locals, schoolchildren, visitors and businesses. This platform provides opportunities to showcase the different disciplines of ice climbing and to experience them firsthand.

Part of the proceeds goes towards cultural projects supported by the Swiss Alpine Club (SAC), in collaboration with the Saas-Fee Ice Climbing Association.
