ラ・バティの峠・トップ17

Here is the route for the ascent of the Cormet de Roselend starting from Beaufort, the legendary route via the magnificent lake of the same name!

The Passeur de la Mintaz does not present any technical difficulty, but remains difficult for people prone to vertigo.

A passageway facing the north face of Pierra Menta, which will allow you to connect the Lac d'Amour to the west, and the Col de Bresson and the Presset refuge to the east. A steep passage, unpleasant for people prone to vertigo.

From the lake, it's about 400 meters to the highest point. The scenery up here is simply magnificent, so the climb flies by.

At 1,968 meters above sea level, the Cormet de Roselend is a well-known pass in the Alps, located between the two iconic massifs of Beaufortain and Mont Blanc. Its 20 kilometers at a 6.2% gradient from Beaufort make it a first-category pass. Note a flat section at the twelfth kilometer at Lake Roselend, which allows you to admire the lake before beginning the final ascent.

The Col de la Pierra Menta peaking at more than 2550m separates Beaufortain from Vanoise. Its crossing requires good management of the fear of heights. Chronic acrophone, refrain.

The Passage de la Mantaz is the pass located at the foot of Pierra Menta, making it a choice passage to access the famous summit.

At 1,889 meters above sea level, the Col de la Bâthie is located in the heart of the mountain pastures. It separates the Pointe de la Grande Journe and the Légette du Grand Mont. If you embark on the Beaufortain tour off-site, you will have the pleasure of passing through it.
