An ascender for a fixed rope comprising a metal flange-plate equipped with a trough for housing the rope and with a swivelling trigger designed to block the rope against the inner surface of the trough when the flange-plate is solicited in the downwards direction. The outside surface of the trough comprises an ergonomic grip for the ascender to be totally held in the hand. The grip extends over the whole length of the trough, and the pivot-pin of the trigger is located at an intermediate level between the opposite ends of the grip.
