Aiguille Percée

Aiguille Percée, Mountain summit in Bonneval-sur-Arc, France.

Aiguille Percée is a mountain peak in the Graian Alps rising to 3,437 meters with prominent glaciers on its slopes and crests. The summit offers climbing and trekking opportunities in a rugged alpine landscape.

The peak has marked the border between France and Italy for centuries within the Vanoise massif. Its distinctive geological hole became a recognizable landmark in this Alpine region.

Local mountaineering groups regularly organize guided expeditions to the summit, maintaining traditional Alpine climbing techniques and safety protocols throughout the seasons.

The mountain is best approached from the village of Bonneval-sur-Arc, where equipment rental and mountain guides are available. Summer months offer the most stable conditions for climbing attempts.

The mountain's name comes from its most distinctive feature - a natural hole running through its upper section. This opening is visible from multiple viewing angles, making it easily recognizable.
