Immediately at the beginning of the Aufstigs the one or the other will have to push. Very steep.
Super panorama and magnificent view of the highest mountain in the Alps.

We got out in Le Châtelard-Frontière in 2016 and actually wanted to get up here.
Unfortunately, the weather thwarted our plans. Then stayed on the main street in the pouring rain. But we are planning the route again for 2021. Hope it works this time.

The climb is relatively easy from Chamonix, steep from the other side and partly blocked with loose scree. Driving is possible with safe driving skills. But then it’s fun too.
