Le Christomet, Mountain summit in La Giettaz, France

Located at an elevation of 1853 meters, Le Christomet forms part of the French Alps chain between La Giettaz and Praz-sur-Arly municipalities.

The mountain has served as a natural boundary between different Alpine communities, marking territorial divisions among local settlements since the Middle Ages.

Local shepherds maintain traditional summer grazing practices on Le Christomet's slopes, continuing centuries-old agricultural methods of the Savoyard region.

Visitors can access the summit via the Christomet and Torraz chairlifts during winter, or through hiking trails from Col du Jaillet during summer months.

During autumn, the mountain area becomes a natural observatory for deer mating season, accompanied by special Savoyard dining experiences at local establishments.
