Rocher des Tampes, Mountain summit in Glières-Val-de-Borne, France.
The Rocher des Tampes rises to 1865 meters with limestone cliffs on its northern face and a narrow ridge forming its distinctive hogback structure.
The mountain stands near areas where French resistance fighters established strategic positions in the Haute-Savoie department during World War II.
Local mountaineers share their knowledge about unmarked paths to reach Rocher des Tampes, maintaining a tradition of natural exploration.
The ascent from Sambuis parking requires four hours of hiking with a 900-meter elevation gain across unmarked terrain and occasional climbing sections.
The south-western ridge provides technical access to the summit, requiring climbing skills and offering direct contact with limestone formations.
