What is ice climbing ?

Ice climbing, also known as ice waterfall climbing, is a winter activity that involves climbing natural or artificial ice formations. Using specialized equipment such as crampons and ice axes, climbers ascend frozen walls, often created by cascading water that has turned to ice. This discipline, which evolved from mountaineering and traditional climbing, has gained popularity since the 1970s. Ice climbing provides an exhilarating playground for thrill-seekers and offers the chance to experience stunning landscapes.
