L'Écoutoux, Mountain peak in Sappey-en-Chartreuse, France.
The L'Écoutoux summit reaches an elevation of 1,406 meters, providing views of the Belledonne massif, Chamechaude, and the Dent de Crolles from its highest point.
L'Écoutoux stands as an integral part of the Chartreuse massif in the French Alps, featuring a notable anticlinal formation on its southern face.
Local residents created the saying 'from L'Écoutoux, you see everything', referring to the extensive mountain views of the surrounding landscape.
The hiking trail starts at Sappey-en-Chartreuse church parking lot and follows yellow markers for 9.38 kilometers with an elevation gain of 518 meters.
The final meters of the summit display limestone formations called lapiaz, geological structures created through rock erosion over time.
