Pic de Gleize

Pic de Gleize, Mountain summit in Hautes-Alpes, France.

Pic de Gleize is a summit in the Dévoluy massif in the Hautes-Alpes, standing at 2,161 metres. It lies on a ridge that runs from the Montagne de Charance to the Montagne de Faraut, separating the Gapençais area from the Champsaur. The summit can be reached from the Laye ski resort or from the Col de Gleize.

The name Gleize derives from Occitan etymology referring to clay or argillaceous earth, reflecting the geological composition that has historically characterized this alpine region.

The summit sits on the ridge running from the montagne de Charance to the montagne de Faraut, the line that separates the Gapençais from the Champsaur. Walkers reach it from the Laye ski resort or from the col de Gleize, both on the Hautes-Alpes side of the Dévoluy massif.

The summit is reached from the Laye ski resort or from the Col de Gleize. The climb from the col covers 417 metres of ascent and takes about 2.5 hours. The col lies at 1,696 metres and has a car park.
