At the Alpage de l’Emeindra, the path becomes less defined; a PDIPR post invites you to turn right towards the Habert de Chamechaude. Cross the meadow and descend to the chalet of L’Emeindra.
After crossing the alpine pasture, you arrive at the base of a steep ascent that leads you to the Habert de Chamechaude, situated at the foot of the Chamechaude cliffs. You’ll circle around these cliffs to ascend via the western slope. The final access to the summit involves a few cables. Congratulations, you’ve reached the highest peak of Chartreuse at 2082 m!
The descent back to Saint-Pierre-de-Chartreuse is pleasant, winding through the forest. Below the Bachassons cabin, take the path that descends straight ahead, leading to Fontenil, where you connect with a wide trail that joins route 8.
You’ll finish with a last short climb from the Diat leisure base, following alongside the Guiers Mort river.
