Petit Montoir, Mountain summit in Haute-Savoie, France
The Petit Montoir rises to 1584 meters in the Bornes mountains, featuring limestone formations and presenting views toward Lake Annecy and Mont Blanc.
The paths leading to Petit Montoir date back through generations, with local shepherds establishing routes for accessing high alpine pastures over centuries.
The summit forms part of the French Alpine network where mountaineers gather annually to maintain traditional climbing practices and mountain safety protocols.
Hikers access Petit Montoir from Parking des Taillées du Sautet, following marked trails past Chalets des Chappeys toward the emergency shelter at Chalet Camille Dunant.
The mountain contains visible fossils embedded in its karstic landscape, while its limestone pavements create natural patterns across the surface.
