La Grande Moucherolle, Mountain summit in Vercors Massif, France
The limestone peak of La Grande Moucherolle reaches an elevation of 2,285 meters, with steep cliffs rising above the Vercors Regional Nature Park.
The mountain established itself as a geological formation during the Alpine orogeny, when tectonic forces shaped the Dauphiné Prealps over millions of years.
Local mountaineers have developed numerous marked paths and climbing routes on La Grande Moucherolle, creating a rich network of alpine exploration possibilities.
The ascent starts from Clot de la Balme parking lot in Corrençon-en-Vercors at 1,212 meters, covering 12 kilometers with a 1,144-meter elevation gain.
A natural passage called Pas de la Fenêtre at 1,800 meters marks the transition between the forest zone and the rocky summit section.
