Crey du Quart, Mountain summit in Valmeinier, France

The Crey du Quart summit reaches towards the sky between the valleys of Valloire and Valmeinier, featuring multiple natural lakes at its base.

The mountain area near Poingt Rogerel and Geneuil was previously used for agriculture, with traces of past farming activities still visible on its slopes.

English mountaineer William Coolidge, along with local guide Andre Magnin, conducted notable expeditions in this mountain area during the early exploration period.

Visitors can access the mountain via the Brive gondola and Lac de la Vieille chairlift, which operate daily from June 29 to August 30 between 9:00 and 16:30.

The mountain provides simultaneous views of both Valloire and Valmeinier valleys, with the Valloirette torrent flowing from Galibier visible from its peaks.
