Pointe de Chardonnière, Mountain summit in Passy and Sixt-Fer-à-Cheval, France.

The Pointe de Chardonnière rises to an elevation of 2,723 meters, presenting steep slopes and rocky terrain in the French Alps mountain range.

The summit stands as a geological formation shaped through millions of years of Alpine tectonic activity, resulting in its current limestone composition.

Local mountaineers maintain traditional climbing routes to the summit, marking paths that connect the communities of Passy and Sixt-Fer-à-Cheval.

Climbers need advanced equipment and Alpine experience to reach the summit, with summer months offering the most favorable conditions for ascents.
