Grand Rocher, Mountain summit in Belledonne range, France
Grand Rocher rises to 1926 meters between the Grésivaudan and Bréda valleys, marking the northern limit of the Belledonne mountain range.
The mountain paths connecting the surrounding valleys through Grand Rocher served as essential trade routes between Alpine communities for generations.
Local mountaineers gather at Crêt du Poulet shelter each winter season to maintain the mountain traditions of the Isère region.
The hiking trail starts at Barioz Nordic center and extends over 11 kilometers through forest paths and alpine meadows to reach the summit.
The protected peat bogs of Sept-Laux and Crêt Luisard surrounding the peak contain rare Alpine plant species found nowhere else in the region.
