Le Grand Serre

Le Grand Serre is a mountain summit located in the Dauphine Alps between the Romanche and Roizonne valleys in southeastern France. The peak rises roughly 2,100 meters and marks a prominent point in the high alpine landscape of Isère.

The mountain gained prominence in the 1930s with the growth of winter tourism development. Infrastructure gradually expanded as the area became an access point for alpine pursuits in the region.

The Grand Serre region maintains regular hiking programs for teenagers and adults, incorporating traditional mountain refuge experiences and alpine skill development.

The mountain is accessible via marked hiking trails that vary in difficulty and grade. Visitors should bring appropriate mountain gear and plan around the weather conditions that change quickly at higher elevations.

The mountain area preserves stone circles and old trail markers left by generations of mountaineers along its routes. These faint traces shape the landscape and reflect the long history of people passing through this alpine region.
