The Col de la Charmette is hidden in the middle of the Chartreuse at the end of a dead-end road at an altitude of 1,261 meters. Located in the middle of the forest, it is a starting point for many hiking trails.

The Col de la Charmette also known as the 'Route Forestiere de La Charmette' is a mountain road located in the Isère department, northwest of Grenoble.
The road climbs up to the 'Col de la Charmette' at an altitude of 1261 metres but the road is not maintained after passing the monastery halfway along the route.
If you are coming from the north after 4 km at the Buisson Ardent monastery, it is officially closed and prohibited to motor vehicles.
It includes sections of gravel and broken pavement and crosses several dark tunnels. The road is very winding and narrow in places. In many places it is bordered on one side by cliffs, the other side by a drop of hundreds of metres without protection by railings, so be careful.
