Gran Becca du Mont, Mountain summit in French Alps, France

Gran Becca du Mont rises to 2840 meters between the Pass of Sachère and the Pass of Reculaz, separating Walloon of San Grato from Mercuel.

W.B.A. Coolidge and Swiss Mountain Guide Christian Almer Junior completed the first recorded ascent of Gran Becca du Mont on September 3, 1889.

The secondary summit gained the name Becca de l'Ane from a local story about a donkey that managed to climb to this point.

Climbers reach the peak through various routes, including staircases from Col du Mont or by following a gully starting at Lake San Grato.

The mountain features four distinct crests with corresponding rocky walls and contains two summits, with the higher peak located in French territory.

Elevation above the sea: 2,840 m

GPS coordinates: 45.61500,6.98250
