Edelrid Climbing Ropes: Safety and Performance

When it comes to climbing, the rope is your lifeline. And at Edelrid, every Edelrid climbing rope is designed to offer the perfect balance of safety, durability, and ease of use.

• Hydrophobic treatment: ideal for mountaineering or ice climbing, the rope absorbs less than 2% water, even in wet conditions.
• Exceptional longevity: resistance to friction and repeated falls thanks to high-end braiding.

Edelrid Harnesses: Comfort and Fit

A harness is a bit like a pair of shoes; if it's not comfortable, you'll soon regret it. Edelrid harnesses are designed so you'll almost forget you're wearing them... until you're on a flight and you're glad they're there.

• Sophisticated ergonomics: optimal distribution of the load on the hips and thighs to avoid pressure points.
• Precise fit: adjustable straps to fit all body shapes and different layers of clothing (summer and winter).
• Light and robust: perfect for long routes or mountaineering where every gram counts.
