Mont Vorassay

Mont Vorassay is a summit in the Mont Blanc massif standing at 2303 meters in the French Alps. From the top, views extend across the neighboring peaks of the mountain range.

The mountain has long served as a geographical reference point in the French Alps for climbers and travelers passing through the region. It holds importance in the mountain history of the Saint-Gervais area.

The mountain serves as a destination for climbers and hikers in the Upper Savoy region who follow traditional Alpine routes. Local people have used these paths for generations as part of their mountain activities.

The trail starts from Champel village and covers around 14 kilometers to reach the summit. Metal steps and handrails are installed along rocky sections to help with the steeper parts of the climb.

From the summit, visitors can see the Glacier de Bionnassay and the distinctive Aiguille du Goûter peak in a single view. This position makes it a good vantage point to observe several major alpine features at once.
