Pointe des Boeufs Rouges, Alpine summit in Écrins National Park, France.

Pointe des Boeufs Rouges is an alpine summit located in the Écrins massif at roughly 3500 meters, situated within the Hautes-Alpes region. The peak stands among numerous surrounding ridges and formations that together form the broader mountain range.

The sources record no first-ascent date or early mapping history for Pointe des Boeufs Rouges. Its documented history is one of routes: the normal route leaves the refuge de la Pilatte and climbs the glacier de la Pilatte to the col de la Condamine (3,422 m), then follows the south-west ridge. An alternative starts at the Refuge du Sélé (2,511 m), reaches the col du Sélé and continues up the north ridge.

The peak rises above the Glacier de la Pilatte and the Glacier du Sélé, and its name refers to reddish rock, though the sources give no account of who named it or when. Climbers approach it from the Refuge de la Pilatte (via the Col de la Condamine, 3,422 m) or the Refuge du Sélé (2,511 m), the two huts that frame its normal routes.

Reaching this summit requires serious mountaineering experience and proper equipment due to the challenging terrain. Visitors should check conditions and prepare accordingly before attempting to climb.

The normal route starts at the Refuge de la Pilatte and crosses the Glacier de la Pilatte to the Col de la Condamine at 3,422 m before following the southwest ridge. A second route leaves the Refuge du Sélé (2,511 m), climbs to the Col du Sélé and takes the north ridge. The Glacier de la Pilatte falls from the west face, the Glacier du Sélé from the northeast.
