Charande

Located at an elevation of 1715 meters, Charande presents views of the Belledonne, Chartreuse, and Bauges mountain ranges in the French Alps region.

The summit has served as a geographical reference point for local communities since the establishment of mountain settlements in the Vercors mountain range.

The peak forms part of the French Alpine landscape, where generations of mountaineers have developed hiking traditions and outdoor activities throughout the seasons.

The hiking trail to Charande summit spans 6.3 kilometers with a 350-meter elevation gain, beginning at Parking des Feneys in Autrans-Méaudre-en-Vercors.

From the summit, visitors observe snow-covered peaks that frame the cities of Grenoble and Chambéry, with clear weather revealing the distant Taillefer massif.
