Pointe Baraccon de Chamois

The summit reaches an elevation of 2,128 meters and presents limestone formations along military tracks leading through the mountainous terrain.

The area underwent territorial changes in 1947 following the Treaty of Paris, which modified national boundaries and affected local fortification structures.

Military tracks and former artillery positions remain on the mountain slopes, reflecting the strategic importance of this Alpine border region.

The round trip covers 11.6 kilometers with an elevation gain of 850 meters, requiring 5.5 hours total hiking time from La Court.

The trail passes through Rocce Bianche, a zone characterized by white limestone rocks, and includes sections of a former decauville railway system.
