    Hiking

    At 3,015 meters above sea level, the Pointe de l'Observatoire offers an incredible panorama of Mont Blanc, the Péclet Polset massif, the Vanoise glaciers and the Chavière valley.

    Hiking

    Summit with a fantastic view of Mont Blanc.
    Easy and short climb from the Col d'Aussois.

    As the name suggests: a wonderful vantage point over the surrounding peaks and valleys. The summit itself offers little space, but a few niches just below offer the opportunity for a summit rest.
