Scenic viewpoint, summit

Puy-Saint-Vincent summit is a mountain peak with a viewpoint in the French Alps, rising above 2000 meters in elevation. From here you can see the entire Écrins massif chain and the surrounding Alpine ridges stretching across the horizon.

This location developed in the 1960s as a winter sports resort, transforming the mountain village into a modern destination. The construction of cable cars and ski runs during this period shaped the landscape and community that exists today.

The mountain community maintains alpine traditions through seasonal festivals and local craft markets that regularly enliven the Puy-Saint-Vincent resort.

Cable cars and ski lifts provide access to the summit throughout the year, with schedules varying by season. Paths to the viewpoint are well marked and accessible to walkers who do not ski.

The location features 75 kilometers of ski runs distributed across three elevation levels, ranging from 1400 to 2700 meters above sea level.
