Pointe d'Archeboc

Pointe d'Archeboc, Mountain summit in Graian Alps, Italy.

The Pointe d'Archeboc is a 3,272-metre summit of the Graian Alps on the border between Savoie, France, and the Aosta Valley, Italy. It forms a long ridge with three separate summits, usually climbed from the Valgrisenche side in Italy.

The mountain has long served as a natural border marker between Italy and France, separating Aosta Valley from the Savoie region. This boundary location shaped how the area developed throughout history.

The peak carries two names: Pointe d'Archeboc on the French side and Ormelune in Italian. Ski mountaineers usually start from the Valgrisenche valley in Italy, while French parties set out from Le Monal and the vallon du Clou in Savoie, so both languages are heard on the same ridge.

The best time to visit is during summer months from June to September when climbing conditions are most favorable. Multiple routes lead to the summit from the valley, requiring good fitness and experience with alpine terrain.

The Pointe d'Archeboc is also known in Italian as Ormelune. Its long ridge carries three separate summits, so climbers heading for the top must follow the crest rather than a single point. The usual ascent starts from the Valgrisenche side in Italy.
