Culminating at 1,867 meters, the Charmant Som is an emblematic summit of the Chartreuse massif. From the inn of the same name, accessible by car, the ascent is made without major difficulty. At the top, the panorama is spectacular!

Running

The abundance of flowers, the particular jagged rocky ridge and the view of the Chartreuse make it a very interesting destination. Once you have hiked/runned here, you now have the fun of the descent.

Hiking

A road leads to the Chalets de Charmant Som, from there it is only about 40 minutes to the summit, which is why it is not entirely lonely. However, the abundance of flowers, the peculiarly jagged crag and the view over the Chartreuse make it a very worthwhile destination.
