Details
A hike leading to a 3704m high summit with amazing views. In fact, there are great views all the way up.
In summer this route is just a long hike - there is a good path to around 3000m (equipped with chains) and a visible trail (sometimes many of them) higher up. Some easy scrambling may be necessary; not exposed. No idea why it is graded PD in the French version. Nevertheless it is a high mountain and may be dangerous in bad conditions.
Access:
Park at Mauvoisin and go to the dam, traverse the dam and go into the tunnel. After 3 short tunnels there is a ladder. Then just follow the trail up.
