The SUMMIT ice axe by Petzl is designed for classic mountaineering, offering a successful combination of lightness, ergonomics and performance.

Designed to adapt to different terrains, the SUMMIT model ensures a good balance between maneuverability when progressing and anchoring power in more technical passages.

Thanks to its shaft that is curved at the top and straight at the base, this Petzl ice axe can be easily used as a piolet-canne, a ramp or a traction axe, depending on the needs of the terrain.

The hot-forged steel pick of the SUMMIT ice axe offers excellent penetration in both hard snow and ice.

Its pointed toothed profile optimizes grip, while the central thickness improves hold in looser snow.

The upper teeth reinforce its stability when used as a ramp. The sturdy and well-designed spike provides reliable support and can even be used for cutting steps.

The 7075 aluminum shaft , chosen for its strength and lightness, is machined to provide a good grip.

The Petzl SUMMIT ice axe also has practical attachment points at the head and tip for a carabiner or strap, making it a tool that is as technical as it is versatile.

Strong, light and versatile, the Petzl SUMMIT ice axe is perfect for all classic mountaineering ascents , whether on snow or ice.
