Alpine Hearts, the first outdoor climbing festival in the Alps for women & LGBTQ+ climbers.

It was their first time running the event, and its mission was to create a safe space for women and queer climbers to connect, learn, and climb together without the usual pressures of mainstream climbing events. The festival was a huge success, and will be returning in 2025!

It was a privilege to be invited to capture the debut festival and be a part of their experience.
