サンジャンドクーズ周辺のアトラクション＆必見スポット - トップ20

The access is very well signposted, and you can do a lovely loop hike, starting from Saint-Même-le-Haut, or from Saint-Pierre-d'Entremont for the more adventurous. At the end of winter, the water level can be very high.

Magnificent view of the heart of the Chartreuse region, the plain of St. Laurent du Pont, and Mont Blanc in the background, seemingly within arm's reach. The access path via the ridge that connects to Outheran is very straightforward. The climb from St. Jean de Couz on the SW side is quite complicated. The path is barely visible and rather difficult to follow on a very steep face. The final section leads up a very steep couloir, through a slippery and unstable scree slope. Furthermore, the exposure to falling rocks is quite significant; extreme caution is required (helmet recommended). The final section consists of short climbing sections and very steep ascents in fairly exposed grassy terrain (fairly straightforward, but exposed).

Beautiful surroundings and a wonderful place to start this (and other) hikes. Les Ateliers du Cucheron is a fantastic hotel/gite with very friendly staff. I'll definitely be back to discover more hikes.

Warning: The climb from the east side is extremely steep! An average gradient of around 10% over 9-10 km.

From Saint Laurent du Pont, a demanding 14km climb, with many sections at over 10%. It is divided into three parts: 9km of irregular ascent (6 to 11.5% /100m) to the junction for the Chartreuse Monastery. Then 2km of flat terrain to the foot of St Pierre de Chartreuse and finally a very steep climb (several sections at +12% /100m) to the Col de Cucheron. A pass not to be underestimated! 25 degrees at St Laurent = 15 degrees at the top of the pass and its very shaded slopes. Dress accordingly.

Magnificent! But be careful on the second part it is much more technical so hiking is ok, running less so :/

Very nice to do

Very good and quite accessible as a pass. Be careful of overtaking cars.
