Grand Montoir, Mountain summit in Haute-Savoie, France
Grand Montoir reaches an elevation of 1731 meters and features a steep path secured with cables and barriers across a prominent cliff face.
The summit has served as a key access point to Parmelan since the establishment of traditional Alpine climbing routes in the Haute-Savoie region.
Local mountaineers maintain the secured pathways and climbing routes, contributing to the preservation of Alpine climbing traditions in the French Alps.
The ascent from Chalet Chappuis requires technical climbing gear and takes approximately half a day to complete through the main climbing route.
The direct path through Grand Montoir reduces climbing time by 40 minutes compared to the alternative route through Petit Montoir.
