Dent de Pleuven, Cliff and summit in Bauges Mountains, France.
The Dent de Pleuven rises to 1771 meters in elevation, featuring limestone cliffs and steep slopes accessible through multiple hiking trails from nearby villages.
Documents from 1345 record the presence of woodturning craftsmen who produced fine tableware from sycamore wood in the Dent de Pleuven region.
The traditional woodturning techniques using foot-operated lathes represent an essential part of the local mountain craftsmanship heritage in this Alpine area.
The hiking trail begins near Magnoux hamlet at 931 meters elevation, covering 8.5 kilometers with an elevation gain of 840 meters to reach the summit.
Groups of chamois inhabit the cliffs of Dent de Pleuven, making regular appearances to hikers during their ascent to the mountain peak.
