Hiking

The ascent to the South then East face allowed us to make the return (descent) via the snow-covered north face before a slight ascent towards the west in the dry.
To do again!!!

Hiking

For an optimal tour, loop uphill via the Pas de l'Oreille and descend via the Trou du Glaz. Be careful, some passages require you to put your feet on and despite numerous handrails, the path, up and down, remains quite technical for an unseasoned hiker. It is therefore better not to take children and people who do not feel very comfortable in the mountains.

Hiking

The circular route is beautiful. It's quite challenging, with sections of light climbing, a cable, very narrow paths along the edge of a precipice (not for the faint of heart), and walking on rock cut by snow/ice. At the top of the zigzag ascent, turn right towards "Paso del Ojo" (Eye Pass). This direction is more advisable, tackling the climbing and loose rock sections on the way up rather than on the way down.
