On 21 August 2010, she climbed the Aiguille Noire de Peuterey with her climbing partner, Nicolas. While descending the south face of the mountain a boulder came loose. She was not roped up and she fell to her death.[1][2] In 2011, a non-profit foundation, "Chloé Graftiaux Passion Together", was created to give scholarships to young climbers.[8] In June 2020, Belgian rock climber Anak Verhoeven established Belgium's hardest sport climb and first-ever 8c+/9a route and named it Kraftio in her memory.[9]
