Aiguille de Roselette

Aiguille de Roselette is a sharp summit in the Haute-Savoie with jagged rock ridges and steep sided faces visible from many angles. The peak offers multiple approaches that vary in difficulty, from hiking paths to technical climbing routes.

The summit attracted climbers during the 1800s as mountaineering became popular in the Alps. Local guides developed routes and established the area as a climbing destination over the following decades.

The summit serves as part of the extensive Beaufortain hiking network, connecting numerous Alpine paths including sections of the Tour du Mont Blanc circuit.

The ascent starts from lower trailheads and follows marked paths through alpine meadows and forested slopes. Visitors should bring proper mountain gear and monitor weather closely, as conditions can change rapidly at higher elevations.

Several climbing routes on this peak demand specialized ice and rock equipment depending on season and snow cover. Winter ascents are particularly technical and only suitable for experienced mountaineers.
