La Cochette is part of the mount which adjoins it further north, Mount Outheran. This is an excellent hike for the family from Côte Barrier or Saint-Jean-de-Couz!

This point of view is really worth the detour.

Magnificent view of the heart of the Chartreuse region, the plain of St. Laurent du Pont, and Mont Blanc in the background, seemingly within arm's reach.
The access path via the ridge that connects to Outheran is very straightforward.
The climb from St. Jean de Couz on the SW side is quite complicated. The path is barely visible and rather difficult to follow on a very steep face. The final section leads up a very steep couloir, through a slippery and unstable scree slope. Furthermore, the exposure to falling rocks is quite significant; extreme caution is required (helmet recommended). The final section consists of short climbing sections and very steep ascents in fairly exposed grassy terrain (fairly straightforward, but exposed).
