Croix de Chamrousse climbing site
Altitude site (2200m) particularly pleasant by hot weather.

From the Croix, head for the Col de La Botte, where the cliff appears on your right. Then join it on a contour via small paths.
- On foot, reach Chamrousse 1750 - Roche Béranger at the Croisette bend.
Park your car and follow the pistes to La Croix, or take the Lac Achard path, the Col de l'Infernet and the Col de la Botte. The second option is more pleasant but takes longer (1h to 1h30 depending on options).
