Mont Joux, Mountain summit in Saint-Gervais-les-Bains, France

Mont Joux is a mountain summit in the French Alps near Saint-Gervais-les-Bains, reaching an elevation of about 1964 meters. The terrain features several marked hiking routes across the slopes with views of surrounding peaks.

Mont Joux is one of the northernmost summits of the Beaufortain massif in Haute-Savoie. It belongs to a ridge whose highest point is Mont Joly (2,525 m), reached via the Croix du Christ, with Mont Géroux to the south-east and Mont d'Arbois to the north-west. Its slopes now carry the ski runs and lifts of the Évasion Mont-Blanc area, including the Mont Joux and Mont Joux III chairlifts and the Évasion ski tow.

Mont Joux lies within the Évasion Mont-Blanc ski area, and its slopes carry the lifts that serve it: the Mont Joux and Mont Joux III chairlifts and the Évasion drag lift reach the summit, while the Étudiants, Croix and Communailles drag lifts run on the flanks. In summer the same cleared slopes are used as paths and tracks.

Mont Joux lies in the Évasion Mont-Blanc ski area, and chairlifts Mont Joux and Mont Joux III plus the Évasion drag lift reach the summit, while the Étudiants, Croix and Communailles drag lifts serve its slopes. In snow-free months the grassy dome and its faint tracks are reached on foot from the surrounding valleys.

Mont Joux is the northernmost of the main summits of the Beaufortain massif, which otherwise lies farther south. Its 1,964-metre top stands above the Arve valley and Saint-Gervais-les-Bains, while the higher Mont Joly (2,525 m) rises about 2.9 km to the south. The ski lifts of the Évasion Mont-Blanc area reach the summit itself.
