    At 3,747 meters above sea level, La Grande Sassière offers a 360° panorama of the French, Italian and Swiss Northern Alps.

    Hiking

    This high Savoy summit offers a magnificent 360° panorama and is accessible without special equipment, as you can avoid its glacier entirely.
    A very accessible three thousand, although you need to be in good physical shape and be accustomed to the altitude.

    Mountain biking

    Our plan was to climb the summit with our bikes on our shoulders. As there was still a lot of snow and some light climbing was required, we parked our bikes along the way. I recommend the Aiguille de la Grande Sassière for hikers but not for bikers, as the descent is partly doable but not worthwhile.
