Pointe de Chardonnière, Mountain summit in Passy and Sixt-Fer-à-Cheval, France.
Pointe de Chardonnière is a mountain summit in the French Alps with steep slopes and rocky terrain. The peak sits between Passy and Sixt-Fer-à-Cheval and draws climbers seeking challenging Alpine routes.
The summit formed through Alpine tectonic processes over millions of years, creating its distinctive limestone rock formations. The geological structure has remained largely unchanged since its formation in the primary mountain-building period.
Local mountaineers maintain traditional climbing routes to the summit, marking paths that connect the communities of Passy and Sixt-Fer-à-Cheval.
Reaching the peak requires solid climbing experience and mountaineering gear including ropes and protective equipment. The warmer months provide better conditions, though weather can shift rapidly at altitude.
The peak marks the boundary between two communes and commands views toward the Giffre Valley and Mont Blanc massif. On clear days, these distant views extend far across the Alpine landscape.
