by the day
Departure: gondola's arrival at 2250m of altitude.
A summit one deserves, where you are likely to meet ibexes. After a one-hour ascent, in a haven of peace, admire the Oisans Mountains, l’Alpe d’Huez or the Deux Alpes glacier. Overlook the Bourg d’Oisans valley.
This hike is for experienced hikers who are able to orientate without the help of painted signposting.
Pets allowed: dogs are allowed in the summer on all trails on a leash as well as in the gondola. The shepherd who works in Chamrousse in the summer has no Pyrenean Mountain Dog.
Opening periodFrom 30/06 to 01/10.
