Roche Veyrand, Mountain summit in Savoie, France.

Roche Veyrand is a limestone peak in the Chartreuse Mountains between the towns of Corbel and Saint-Pierre-d'Entremont, rising to 1429 meters. The ridge displays white and gray rock formations typical of limestone mountains in this region.

Roche Veyrand lies in the Chartreuse range between Corbel and Saint-Pierre-d'Entremont in Savoie. The Fiolins hamlet is the trailhead for a path to the via ferrata that crosses the mountain toward the Entremonts valley; hiking access takes about two hours and is easier from the Col de la Cluse at 1169 m. From the summit, hikers can continue onto the Roc de Gleisin ridge.

A mountain cross sits at the summit, reflecting a widespread custom in the French Alps where high peaks receive religious monuments. You will see similar crosses adorning other peaks throughout this mountain region.

Two via ferrata routes begin from Fiolins hamlet, with the first requiring intermediate climbing ability and the second demanding advanced skills. Bring appropriate equipment and allow enough time, as each section presents different levels of challenge.

The summit gives access to the rocky Roc de Gleisin ridge, so the two are linked by a crest rather than by any natural arch. The via ferrata that crosses Roche Veyrand can be split into two sections, the first rated AD and the second TD.
