Roche Planca, Mountain summit in Haute-Savoie, France
The Roche Planca rises to 1546 meters in elevation, featuring granite formations mixed with layers of gneiss and schist in the French Alps.
The summit has played a role in the evolution of Alpine mountaineering, marking routes for generations of climbers since the early exploration of Mont Blanc massif.
Local mountaineering clubs regularly organize guided expeditions to Roche Planca, maintaining traditional climbing practices and sharing regional alpine knowledge.
Multiple marked trails lead to the summit from different starting points, requiring proper hiking equipment and attention to weather forecasts before attempting the ascent.
