メイユリの絶景の山頂・トップ14

A very beautiful peak. Its striking shape attracted me from a distance. That's what a mountain should be like. Some climbing required. Great view. The Chablais is a very beautiful mountain range. Visible as far as Mont Blanc.

Hike along a pleasant path

On September 3rd, 2023 we hiked along both edges of the Mémises in bright sunshine.

A superb summit which offers magnificent views of Lake Geneva and the Chablais massif. The climb can seem a little dizzying with the chimney that leads to the Dent d'Oche refuge on one side, and some exposed passages equipped with cables on the other. Be careful in rainy weather, the rock can be very slippery. Nevertheless, the view is worth the climb and some beautiful hiking tours allow day crossings.

The Pic de Mémise is an elevation above Thollon-des-Mémises that I/we have climbed repeatedly over the past ten years. In the direction of Lake Geneva, the Mémises form a cliff along which you can hike. The highest peak is 1674 meters high. You can access the hiking trail with a cable car, which is also open in summer until the beginning of September. Sturdy shoes and hiking poles are recommended. The area above the open high plateau is one of the most famous ski areas in the Évian-les-Bains area. Above the Mémises is the Pic Boré at 1974 m. The last 150 m to the summit are very steep. On the back there is a grade, which later goes steeply over a meadow into the valley. Good hiking equipment is essential here. I crossed the Pic Boré 2022.

Beautiful summit with a panoramic view. Unfortunately no summit cross - lower peaks in the area have one. The ascent is mostly on roads in the ski area. Shortly before the summit, a karst gully has to be climbed. The rating with difficulty T3 is a bit high.

Great summit with all-round views. Access partly via ski area roads. The last exit requires some scrambling in a karstic gully (see photo).

Beautiful summit with summit cross. The descent towards the south is steep and karst.
