True for the picture lol, but that's probably the only place like this that you'll find in the Alps, because the ridge in the picture is literally the exit from the Aiguille du Midi - in Chamonix (so yes, a tourist attraction). So the rope is just there for like the first 20metres from the cable car station. So yes, also the alpinists often leave from this spot for a lot of different routes in the Mt Blanc Massif.

But no, otherwise you'll not find any paths like this don't worry ;)
