Les Rognes, Mountain peak in Saint-Gervais-les-Bains, France.
Les Rognes rises to 2,853 meters above sea level, featuring rocky ridges that extend along the northern slope of Mont Blanc massif.
The mountain path to Les Rognes gained significance in 1892 when geologists studied the area following the Tête Rousse Glacier disaster.
Local mountaineers use Les Rognes as a reference point during their expeditions, marking their progress toward higher Mont Blanc summits.
Hikers can reach Les Rognes by taking the Mont Blanc Tramway to Nid d'Aigle station and following the marked trail for 90 minutes.
The former forestry cabin at Les Rognes, renovated in 2003, serves as an unmanned shelter at 2,768 meters for mountaineers crossing the area.
