Petit Combin

Along the border of Switzerland and Italy are the Pennine Alps.  The Petit Combin sits on the Combin Massife and is the most visited mountain of the massif.

It is a great mountain with great views and it is possible to ascend it almost any time of year. There are many different routes both in winter and in summer. The central ridge that cuts the north face in half is a very good introduction to alpine mixed climbing.
