Aiguille de Péclet, Mountain summit in Vanoise National Park, Savoie, France.

The Aiguille de Péclet reaches an elevation of 3,566 meters within the Massif de la Vanoise, featuring steep slopes and glacial formations along its ridges.

The mountain gained recognition when the Vanoise National Park was established in 1963, making it a central feature of France's first national park.

Local mountaineers and skiers regularly traverse the Face Ouest route, which extends 2.2 miles with a vertical descent of 1,325 feet through varied terrain.

Access to the summit requires proper mountaineering equipment, including glacier rescue gear, and is best attempted during summer months when weather conditions permit.

The mountain contains multiple glacial corridors that transform into exceptional ski routes during winter, connecting directly to the Val Thorens resort area.
