La Grande Moucherolle

La Grande Moucherolle, Mountain summit in Vercors Massif, France

La Grande Moucherolle is a 2,284-metre summit in the Vercors Massif, the range's second-highest point. Its jagged main peak and a lower rounded ridge to the right show grey-brown rock through snow, with dark conifers scattered on the slopes below. The summit stands above Villard-de-Lans, and the paired Rochers des Deux-Sœurs, Sophie (2,162 m) and Agathe (2,193 m), rise to its east above the Drac valley.

La Grande Moucherolle is the second-highest summit of the Vercors Massif at 2,284 metres, after the Grand Veymont. It stands on the same ridge line as the Petite Moucherolle (2,156 m) to the south, separated by the col des Moucherolles, and the rochers des Deux-Sœurs, Sophie (2,162 m) and Agathe (2,193 m), to the east above the Drac valley. The rochers des Jaux (2,062 m) continue the line northward.

The two Moucherolles are clearly visible from the centre of Villard-de-Lans, notably from the porch of the village church. The name Moucherolle refers to the peaks themselves, and the neighbouring Rochers des Deux-Sœurs are named Sophie (2,162 m) and Agathe (2,193 m). In winter the slopes of the Moucherolles form most of the Villard-Corrençon ski area.

The ascent begins from the Clot de la Balme parking area near Corrençon-en-Vercors and proceeds over sections of varying steepness to reach the summit. The best climbing season runs from June through September, when snow cover is minimal and conditions are safest.

The Grande Moucherolle (2,284 m) is the second-highest summit of the Vercors Massif, after the Petite Moucherolle (2,156 m) just to the south, separated by the col des Moucherolles.
