A true colossus of stone, Chamechaude is the highest peak in the entire Chartreuse massif with its 2082 meters above sea level. Climbing to its summit requires several hours of walking from Sappey-en-Chartreuse or from the car park at its feet. From its summit, you will be able to observe a 360 ° view of the entire Chartreuse, Belledonne, Vercors and Alps massif. In windy weather, the summit can be swept by fairly strong gusts. The last meters of ascent require a little semi-climbing effort before reaching the cross at its summit.
