サンティレールの絶景の山頂・トップ12

A stunning summit with views of Mont Blanc. The two climbs from the Col des Ayes are relatively steep, but steel cables are installed at the more dangerous sections. The climb north via the Trou du Glaz is a bit longer and a bit easier. The climb east is a bit steeper and more exposed. The view is good, though.

to do and redo!

Easy and very pretty, a 360° as we like them in Chartreuse

Culminating at 2,062 meters above sea level, the Dent de Crolles is the second peak of Chartreuse. Accessible, it offers a vast panorama of the south of Chartreuse, the Belledonne massif and the Grésivaudan valley.

La Pinéa is a pretty rocky summit which is located in the middle of the Chartreuse at 1,771 meters above sea level. It offers numerous views of the highest mountains of the massif.

Culminating at 2,082 meters above sea level, Chamechaude is the highest point of the Chartreuse massif. Easily accessible from the Col de Porte, it offers an exceptional 360-degree view. You can see a beautiful part of the massif as well as those in the surrounding area. On a clear day, the view extends to the highest Alpine peaks.

2nd highest peak in the Chartreuse. Looks impressive from afar with its sheer wall. There are 2 routes to go up there, the Trou du Glaz, and the pas de l'oeil. By the step of the eye from the Col des Ayes it is very steep at the beginning then on the balcony, then we arrive on the technical part with a chain to climb a small steep path. Be careful, this part is quite slippery on the stones and a little exposed in a fault in the cliff. Overall it's going well, you just have to be a little concentrated. The view at the top is amazing. The bivouac without tent is authorized there. Waking up in the early morning with the chamois is exceptional!

Culminating at 1,867 meters, the Charmant Som is an emblematic summit of the Chartreuse massif. From the inn of the same name, accessible by car, the ascent is made without major difficulty. At the top, the panorama is spectacular!
