Crêt de la Perdrix

Crêt de la Perdrix reaches an elevation of 1,432 meters and features a formation of granite rocks with an orientation table at its highest point.

During the 1920s, the location became one of the first skiing destinations in France, installing an early ski lift system for winter sports enthusiasts.

Below the summit, La Jasserie stands as one of the oldest farms in the massif, where a bell once rang to guide lost travelers through storms.

Marked trails leading to the summit remain accessible throughout the year, with varying conditions depending on seasonal weather patterns.

From the peak, visitors can observe the Alps while walking through moorlands filled with broom plants, heather, and blueberry bushes that change colors seasonally.
