Aiguille de Chalais, Free flight site in Isère, France
The Aiguille de Chalais reaches an elevation of 1089 meters in the French Alps, featuring limestone formations and providing views across surrounding valleys.
The nearby Chalais monastery, founded in 1101, reflects the long-standing religious presence in this mountainous region of southeastern France.
Dominican Sisters established themselves at the monastery in the 1950s, introducing traditional biscuit-making practices that continue to this day.
The hiking trail begins at the parking area before the monastery and extends 3.2 kilometers with an elevation gain of 170 meters.
The geological structure and air conditions at this peak make it an excellent location for paragliding and hang gliding activities.
