Roc de Burel, Mountain summit in Vanoise National Park, France
The Roc de Burel reaches an elevation of 2956 meters within the Vanoise massif, featuring exposed rock formations and steep slopes along its path.
The summit has served as a geological marker since the establishment of Vanoise National Park in 1963, contributing to regional mapping and research.
Local mountain guides lead educational expeditions to Roc de Burel, teaching traditional Alpine navigation and safety techniques to new generations.
Mountaineers access the summit through marked trails from Val-Cenis, requiring winter equipment from November through April due to snow conditions.
