Pointe de la Rossa, Mountain summit in La Plagne Tarentaise, France

Pointe de la Rossa is a summit reaching 2,708 metres in the French Alps, in the commune of La Plagne Tarentaise, Savoie. It stands 1.3 km from Le Roignais, the higher peak at 2,995 metres, and about 8 km east of Bourg-Saint-Maurice. The surrounding slopes are covered in alpine grassland.

The summit was documented as a geographical landmark during 19th-century mapping expeditions of the French Alps. Early surveying work established it as a recognized feature for local mountain communities.

The summit lies in the Vanoise massif above La Plagne Tarentaise, about 8 km east of Bourg-Saint-Maurice. Its 2,708 m top stands 1.3 km from Le Roignais, the higher neighbour at 2,995 m. The surrounding slopes are mostly open alpine grassland used for summer grazing.

Access is via marked trails starting from Bivacco Gratton with proper mountaineering equipment and attention to changing weather conditions. Afternoon storms are common in this region and require early starts and careful planning.
